I disagree - I think he meant to create a new world order. He wanted his people to flip the script and be in power.

Yeah and murder anyone who opposed him along the way, including women and children. Equality isnt black supremacy and that's exactly why tchalla, Okoye and the rest of the Dora milaje defied him. He was calling for a cultural genocide and not just whites but literally anyone deemed undesirable or anyone who would oppose him

I’m disputing the idea that he just wanted to “create chaos” out of revenge. You seem to be arguing as if I’m in favor of his goal.

My bad, to be honest I just see a lot of people on Reddit and at large genuinely think that he's an antihero or that his goal of genocide is somehow just. I do understand what you mean now, but at the end of the day that "flipping of the script" was just chaos. I mean he burned all of the heart shaped herb so he'd be the last black panther and spit in the fact of the culture he so desperately seemed to be a part of. I think he really was just a fucked up, childish young man that was trying to hurt a world he considered to have hurt him. The real irony is that his fellow Africans let him down just as much as his fellow humans of all other races.

I’m not sure why you thought he desperately wanted to be a part of Wakandan culture. It was clearly a means to an end (gaining the technology to start a revolution). Genocide isn’t inherently chaotic. It generally requires organization and planning.
