Specifically a French intellectual postmodernist nihilist.
Remember when the professor and champion were buddy buddy with him in the cafe? Basically the elites brushing shoulders with a man planning mass murder. Despite 90% of x&y's story being unfinished and pretty underwhelming, I kind of like how the champ and prof were aloof retards. Reminds me of postmodern fart-sniffing french gleefully going down the postmodern rabbit hole that leads to nihilism. In Y anyway, I remember Lysandere just wanted to use yveltsl to death-nuke France like had been done centuries prior. The beauty thing seemed like a hollow justification for complete annihilation. Idk if X and Xerneas gave him a different motive.
Anyway, IRL a lot of those French thinkers were communists/Marxists but it really doesn't apply here. Beware them anyway, Foucault for example fetishized violence and critical theory of all kinds seeks to dismantle capitalism and every working function of society piece by piece by piece until nothing is left. They reject the beauty of modernism and delve into the abyss. Nothing is real, gender isn't real, the family unit is an abuse of power etc it sounds logical but it is ultimately nihilistic madness.
I think anyone reading this post should READ guys like Mussolini, you'll realize that fascists can be socialists. Communists can be totalitarian. The world isn't
