This trope is Older Than Steam: Greek heroes from The Iliad and The Odyssey often become outright villainous in Roman works (the Romans imagined themselves to be of Trojan origin):
- Vergil and Ovid both portray the Greek heroes at Troy mostly in terms of their post-victory atrocities.
- Medieval European writers usually knew Latin but not Greek; as a result, they tended to inherit the Romans' bias. Dante places Odysseus in the eighth circle of Hell, and both Chaucer and Shakespeare are merciless to the Greeks in their versions of Troilus and Cressida.
Greg Hefley from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series can be selfish and manipulative at times, and doesn't like hanging out with the local weird kid. Or in other words, he's your basic middle school-aged boy. And yet, a surprising amount of readers do their damnedest to ignore his many good traits and twist him into being this unfeeling sociopath to the point that a number of pages on TV Tropes used to shoehorn in mentions of him being an example of that trope.
