A costume ball is just that, a costume ball.

His intent might have been just the opposite of what the persnickety might think.

Go to any costume shop and find popular masks and costumes of Hitler or of Nixon or just about anyone of note for that matter and the eviler they were the better for the masque manufacturers.

Does that mean the wearer espouses the hateful models for the masks philosophies?

Who wears the masques or costumes of goodly folk? The towns goody two shoes?

I have not seen any signs that either of the boys think in any way even remotely like that...with a mother like Diana...How could they? With Charles? not so sure.

I see well adjusted minds that have come from a place where well adjustment is hard to come by. One does not choose the circumstances He/she is born into.
