>Yup u r right, should be loved similarly...(well just in my type person's eye, emepror lelouch should be loved by us watchers, at top..because we all knows the InnocentDemon behind HisMajesty's DevilishFace).

The problem is twofold here: first, we the viewer see his moral conflicts, see his struggling with what he has to do. The people in universe do not, with the exception of Suzaku (who's in on the scheme). What they see is a terrorist leader who has a record of being domineering, controlling, willing to use other people without a second thought, and possesses an unholy power to strip away free will literally at a glance. That same person admits to his crimes when confronted by his subordinates rather than talk his way out, and mere months later took control of Britannia to reform it ftom the ground up. Then he promptly took the UFN hostage and proceeded to take over the world. There's the second: whether for good or ill reasons, he did terrible, terrible things, and for reasons not much better than Charles, Schniziel, or even Suzaku. For the greater good and all that jazz.

From an outside perspective, he is a power mad tyrant. The number of people who know the truth don't exceed double digits.
