No

>>47938798
Maybe

>>47938798
depends on the definition of "mad".
he may just be "cruel" and "unethical", which is usually what people mean by "mad scientist", but it doesn't mean he's actually mad.

lacking things like empathy and respect for morals and ethics is viewed as a sign of a troubled mind, but doesn't make you a looney

I sided with Mobius and killed them all.

No, it's just a scientist who has all the funding he needs.

Depends. Is he mad?

Why wouldn't you?

>>47938798
Necessarily? No. But expect people to assume as much.

>>47939423
I mean, Mobius was right.

The other brains had lost touch with humanity and were a danger to the rest of the wasteland. I didn't kill them, but Mobius was correct in that something had to be done to contain the think tank.

>>47938798
Nope, he could be totally normal depending on his environment. Plenty of normal scientists did totally horrible shit just because they thought they were doing the right thing and it was deemed ethical by their contemporary standards.

>>47939338
I don't know...
Can you repeat the question?

(Seriously, though, you need to narrow the definition of 'mad' here. Literally anything that isn't neurotypical can be called mad)

>>47948179
"Neurotypical" means someone who does not have autism. It's not a specific term for those without any mental illness. Fuck off with your Tumblr shit.

>>47945651
lost touch with humanity is underselling it.

One of the assholes casually made both nightstalkers and fucking cazadors, and then failed to contain them to big mountain. God knows how many hundreds they've indrectly killed.
Also looking past all the ruthless lobotomizing.

Yes.
Now kindly give us the next question.

The Hungarian Scientist, Ignaz Semmelweis, who discovered hospital sanitation and basic antiseptics was driven mad by his peers refusal to accept his research.

He died humilated, penniless and a laughing stock in an insane asylum for simply offering that washing hands before surgeries would massively decrease mortality rates of children, mothers and soldiers.
