Second because he adamantly believed in the anti-communist environment of the time. Borous has a darker side however, his cruel treatment of his Gabe, the ripper and various surgical tools and cages in his basement, indicates he abused and may have killed animals as an outlet. His demeanor hasn't changed over the last 200 years. During the quest Brain's Best Friend, he is delighted at the prospect of the PC and Gabe fighting to the death.
