Am I the jerk for killing my uncle?

I know that this may sound extreme but let me explain, I was told by my uncle that I was the reason that my father, the king, died, and that I had to leave and never return to my family. I crossed a desert and ended up in the jungle, where I quikly made new friends, although it was a bit overshadowed by my fathers death. A few years later my childhood best friend (and now wife) came to the jungle and found me and told me that my uncle had mistreaded my country, of course I went back with her and eventually defeated my uncle, therefore killing him. I also found out that not I, but my uncle was the reason for my father's death and that the whole reason I ran away was a lie! Killing him may have been a bit extreme, so Am I The Jerk?

AITJ for forcing one of my workers on a trip he would probably not come back from?

I (~45F) run (or ran, more accurately) a worldwide organization. in recent months, we had a business trip coming up that already had three volunteers for. only about a week before the trip was supposed to happen, our trip's analyst and his backup were both involved in an accident, leaving us without a 3rd member, so I turned to my second in command, (~35M) who I believed was the only person qualified enough. I’ve done some pretty messed up stuff before, but even this was against my morals. Initially, he refused, but I gave him an ultimatum and basically forced him against his will to go, and even sent him on the trip early so his coworkers wouldn’t question it, who I never told before they left. AITJ?

AITJ for killing one of the last living members of my race to help it start anew?

I, (5000M) was part of a race led by a very powerful leader (5000F), and I respected her. if you weren’t born into it, she had an object that could turn any average guy into one of them, and with that, our race had a golden age. turns out, we ended up pissing of one of our neighbors, and they slaughtered my brothers and sisters, but I lived. something changed in me. I wanted revenge, but the leader wouldn’t let me. I, somehow thought it was a good idea to fight her, and she trapped me away without human contact for many years. then, a guy (124M) finds me and he tells me he’s the last of our kind. I tell him we need to find the object so our race can rise again. caveat is, he’s friends with people of all races, 2 of them were descendants of people that slaughtered our people in the past. he brings me to the object, and I send him In to retrieve it, and while he’s away, I turn to kill his friends (24F, 26F, 28M and 28M,) in vengeance of what they did to us. he comes back, and understandably tries to kill me, but I (sort of?) kill him and take the relic, even siding with his enemies and giving them powers.

AITJ for killing a crooked leader?

I (30m) and my best friend (30m) discover our lives have been a lie. Our nation's leader had lured the rightful leaders into a trap with our national enemies and got them all killed, then forced many of the next generation, me and my buddy included, to work the mines so he can pay off our enemies. Naturally, I am livid and want to get even.

After we pick up some new allies and expose the leader, my buddy stops me from finishing him off. Something along the lines of "you'll be just like him." I get him out of the way, kill the leader, but God decides my buddy should be the next leader. We get into a tussle and my buddy banishes me and the allies. AITJ?

Edit - grammar

AITA for releasing 4 children from there home to then have them be discriminated against by the rest of the country

So pretty much my parents are in charge of the country and I’m about to be crowned king. Before I get crowned I requested to have 4 evil children from there home that is off the coast of where I live but it is full of poverty and theft. So I brought them over in a limousine to help them be better people since they are only kids at the end of the day. They ended up joining the school all of us go to which are full of rich nepo babies. Throughout their stay there was a break in at a museum that held all powerful Artefacts for the entire realm, I ended up asking out one of the new kids and my ex ended up with some dumb blonde boy. During the anniversary of my parents meeting I got all my friends to put on a show. My exes Grandmother showed up and took one look at my new gf and said that her mother was the reason she couldn’t see her daughter causing the rest of the community to hate and discriminate against them I tried to help but I think I’m making it worse.

AITA for touching a rock that my friend took from me

So some backstory me and my bro whom I've known for years are chilling resting our feet in a pond when the rest of our friend group comes up. Now while we were busy introducing our newest friend to them I noticed a shiny rock in the pond. So I stoop down to pick it up and pull it out of the water. I barely got to look at it before one of my friends snatches it from me. I'm like ok rude but ya know maybe they just wanted to see it. Anyway later we're all chilling and the friend who took it was napping so I was gonna look at it again. So I took it and was giving it a lookise and I swear my bro must have given me some shrooms or something cause I started seeing an eye thingy or something. Anyway after looking for a while my friend wakes up and snatches the rock again and then immediately starts yelling at me. I'm like dude the F. I look to the group for backup only to see all of them giving me looks. So AITA?
