People often are sympathetic for Chrysalis because they think she and her changelings are just doing what they need to do to survive, but despite her using the word "food", feeding off love is for power so they can defeat their enemies and destroy things. The Elements of Harmony book says the changelings crave destruction. There is no rational reason as to why they would destroy cities and lands like they were explicitly shown doing to Canterlot

Of course, if the show brought her back and did what many fanfics have done with her, people would rage that it ruined her character and tried too hard to pander to the fans. Let's let the concept of a good Chrysalis remain only in the fanfics and the Fluffle Puff videos.
