She also had Mad Eye Moody's fake eye hung up on her door. And to top it off, these trials make her disturbingly similar to real-life Nazi war criminals.
And if that's not bad enough, in the seventh book she presides over trials in a kangaroo court for the sake of giving innocent Muggle-born witches and wizards a Fate Worse Than Death by shipping them off to Azkaban where more than a few of them died, just for their non-magical lineage and threatens to allow the Dementors to perform the Dementor's Kiss should they try to resist. She orchestrated a situation where Harry Potter is forced to use the Patronus Charm in front of Dudley in an attempt to save them both, nearly resulting in Harry getting expelled. She was also the reason why Remus Lupin, an unwilling werewolf, wasn't even able to find a job elsewhere and the reason why Dementors were sent out at Harry Potter and Dudley Dursley, as she ordered the Dementors to go after Harry to silence him regarding Voldemort's return (Dudley would just have been collateral damage). She goes from annoying to so repugnant and wicked that many readers despise her far more than the series' Big Bad. She forces misbehaving students to cut up their own skin, which is surpassed by talking herself into both performing an illegal torture spell that has been proven to cause insanity, on a minor to boot. Dolores Umbridge is a domineering and abusive matron figure and a bureaucrat whose pettiness and personal failings cause catastrophic harm to those under her control, with a constant housewife-smile about her in the film, even when she's administering those horrible crimes against humanity.If there are other sociopaths out there born under the same conditions as Tom Riddle, than why did Tom end up standing out among them and becoming the most feared and reviled wizard of them all? Because he chose to become that! He's heinous even by sociopath standards! To further the point, this idea about babies born under Love Potions only reinforces what a monster he is. Specifically, in the sixth book it's revealed he was conceived under a Love Potion, with the implication that children conceived this way always turn out sociopathic this could have been mitigated had he been raised by a loving mother, but his mother was so distraught that she allowed herself to die after giving birth. Rather than feeling any remorse for his actions, his only concern was making sure he could avoid discovery and continue his education. The sixth and seventh books explain his transformation into a monster, but do not attempt to change the fact that he was a heartless, manipulative killer before he even graduated.
And yet, for all his craving of death and destruction, it also proved to be his biggest fear - so much that he was willing to utterly destroy his soul and the lives of many innocents in order to escape death and rule the Wizarding World. Naturally, he would only became worse over time his magical transformations and soul-mutilations have visibly taken a toll on his mind. Said child fled when he quickly learned that wasn't the case, and yet he still contemplated killing the child for the "grievous" offense of basically looking at him funny. During a flashback to the night of the murder of Harry's parents (that Harry experiences from Voldemort's POV), Voldemort encountered a child who mistook his face for a mask. He started TWO genocidal wars against Muggle-borns, voluntarily split his own soul into seven parts using the murders he committed, and casually uses Avada Kedavra - one of the three spells so horrible that a single use puts you in Azkaban for life. Lord Voldemort, AKA Thomas Marvolo Riddle Jr., may be an archetypal villain, but he's still notably an utter sociopath the very first chapter of the first book is all about how he killed two young parents and then tried to kill their one-year-old.
