#Edit: actually removed the disabled part because Slash doesn't actually kick anyone out for that reason

Nearly everything that Slash does is just something Clear Sky did. The only difference is that the narrative is arbitrarily concluding that Clear Sky's behavior was all totally excusable and understandable because of good intentions (which he does not actually have anyway) whereas Slash is pure evil.

Steals prey and land

Brutalizes anyone who gets in his way (Clear Sky has a higher body count and Slash never directly murders anyone though)

Rules group through fear and intense control

Orders gladiator-style public "training" sessions where they all fight with claws out

Smacking children (Alder, Fern Leaf)

Hand-feeds subordinates so they can control exactly what they eat

Allows big piles of food to start rotting in camp

Throws a subordinate in front of a predator (Thunder with a fox, Beech with a dog)

Threats of violence and general assault (Clear Sky is CONSTANTLY hitting women who offend him)

Didn't give proper burials to victims (Clear Sky was going to leave all the dead bodies of his cats behind at the First Battle and left Misty's corpse to rot after taking her children, Slash had his dead underlings brought to the dump)

Clear Sky's fridged wife comes out of the sky to coo that his behavior "never drove anyone away" while Slash is here DOING THE BEHAVIOR that apparently "never drove anyone away."

They tried so hard to make a villain worse than Clear Sky to make him look better in comparison but physically couldn't. He was that bad.
