Didn't know I was so opinionated on this, but I don't think they deserve any. At all.

Depends on the person. Many of them are people who have not had the opportunity to educate themselves or have suffered trauma and perhaps with some therapy and support they can change their way of seeing the world. But on the other hand, we also know that there are people incapable of feeling empathy and thinking for others. And although some of these people are aware of their condition and try to act correctly even if they do not fully understand it because they do not feel it, it is also true that a significant part simply deliberately manipulates and harms the rest openly to achieve their goals. And I believe that THOSE people already cannot have "friends" because for them the rest of us are resources and tools, but even if that were the case, I believe that those people, for that very reason, should not only not have "friends", but not be in charge of anyone, since they will not care about anyone's well-being but their own and then what happens happens; we have global warming, wars, poverty, capitalism, media manipulation...

what do you mean by "deserve"?

Yes, because as strange as this may sound, I think a lot of the "bad" people had some kind of severe trauma and are acting it out on others. That's not to excuse what they did, but I think it explains it sometimes. One example - the suspected serial killer David Parker Ray was severely neglected and abused as a child, and from what I've read, it sounded like he was acting out the abuse he endured on his victims. Had his childhood gone differently, it's quite possible that he wouldn't have turned out that way. Hard to say for sure, though.
