Like most other things in Naruto

Itachi's twist was actually good and a decent depiction of what it means to be a ninja and actually played to the fact Naruto is set in a pre/post warring era.

Itachi is still a villain because he defended the leaf village, the same village which bullied a little kid without parents and with a demon sealed inside of it

Yeah, the only reason world peace is achieved at the end is because the Leaf is so ridiculously powerful it could just nuke any opposition to dust. Literally an endorsement for authoritarianism.
