The quest for novelty finds itself in the "but what if the bad guy were right" thing very often. I can tell you that I enjoy stories where I'm the bad guy - either accidentally or through some discovery of harm (video games do this in a fun way). But in the end, it's just fantasy. This guy couldn't separate real life from a poor model of the world. In the end, intelligence is a composite measure and he lacked it in sufficient form. Pity.
