Human kept Faunus down so now he want to dethrone humanity to put Faunus on top. That's said, like WC83 is saying now, I could be wrong and Adam could just be a murder who found a cause to pretend to be a part of to get off on hurting people. I know he's an extremist. But do you think there's nothing that will wake him up? I know prison will make it worst. But is there any scenario that could play out to change his mind? As far as I know he seems really stubborn but not insane or hot-headed. 1- 'Eye for an eye' on that level typically involves becoming racist. Some of the worst crimes against humanity started as nationalistic fervor and wanted to simply displace the unwanted people but resulted in mass genocide.

2- I don't see Adam getting any redemption, he's pretty far off in the deep end. If he starts to show regret for his actions it'll cost him his life or freedom. He's proven himself comfortable with murdering anyone human.
