Without TVTropes paywall Even Evil Has Standards
Comment on Anon identifies a trope

The TVTropes article for this seems to be Even Evil Has Standards. The idea being to emphasize that something or someone is so evil that even an evil person finds it appalling.

Wait, I’ve never encountered a paywall on TVTropes. I don’t see it when I click OP’s link either. Is this something new?

You have to disable your adbloker or pay 5 bucks a month

Paywall?

If OP’s characterization is accurate, you could argue for anti-hero.

The Code of Harry for Dexter is this type so is say that fits for the concept of not picking random people, but I think OP is more about the drift. That would be Flanderization, in my opinion. When one defining trait of a character progressively gets pushed to eleven until it becomes their only trait.
