Watching House of Cards in 2017, what strains credibility is not the cartoonish evil, but that the evil should express itself so competently
And they're never _really_ evil. Except maybe Cruela de Vil who wants a Dalmatian coat. Rest just vaguely gesture at evil designs

I don't know. There's a lot of unbridled greed and desire to dominate people in cartoon villains. But you're right that they dont feel evil.

It's as if our judgment for who is evil is influenced by whether we think they are actually dangerous, or just aspire to be.
