Yes. That's how I feel too. I can enjoy stories with revenge in them 'You hurt me, now feel my wrath, ha ha', so I don't mind villains being killed and overthrown. Though I like it to be quick, not some prolonged cruelty.
And in stories and in real life it's good to see people making an effort to do good for a change. Both of those type of story can be highly satisfying actually. But I don't believe in becoming a better person through suffering. It just doesn't match anything I see in real life.
