He was acting primarily off of revenge, but he saw how black people are living around the world and called Wakanda out on not helping anyone else. What made him a villain actually was what made him like the "colonizers." He went from helping others to wanting to dominate the entire world and oppress the oppressors and kill anyone in his way.

His death actually meant something because it caused the hero to take the positive motives of the villain and move those further into his character.

I'd have to go back and look closer, but i think the only charcter to come close to doing that in marvel at least was Loki.
He was right about Wakanda and its fine to understand and sympathize with him


But he was REALLY WRONG in what he wanted to do with the resentment and anger he felt. He was no better than a Nazi in that regard
