but Voldie didnt cause his wife's ultimate demise, sabotaging the life he always wanted to have (a family), then getting deep fried, surviving and getting stuck in an iron lung.

although, he was a dismembered form for a long time, but there's very little about him that would get your sympathy. his mother perhaps, but not him. in DH when he's a half mutilated baby creature, you kinda feel sorry for him because of his (soul's) appearance, but not necessarily him. in fact the prevailing emotion was that he was repulsive, and it was entirely his fault.
