not always Meseket - a character whom creates a problem for a protagonist is merely an antagonist - to be a *villain* they need to have criminal or extremely immoral motives for such antagonism.. or be so dangerous they may as well be criminals.. for example a common trope is a strict principle trying to discipline unruly kids or a jerk being mean to someone, they aren't villains because they don't commit any actual crimes.. it's only once they cross a legal and ethical threshold that they are a villain/

racketeering is a criminal offense and thus, yes, those who do that are villains.
