Nonsense. He attacked the Senate, robbed from the rich to give to himself, protected his position by bribing the army, declared himself divine, and embarked on a number of ego-boosting building projects. These are all things emperors are supposed to do.

He fulfilled his duty in grand style.

Boru

He awarded the Praetorians with a well-deserved bonus for honorable duty and services rendered.
