I actually rather dislike Kylo Ren as a character, but I think it was fortuitous that I found my post about him and Sheev on the same day the final TROS trailer dropped.  It may seem strange for someone to say a character they dislike is similar to one of their favorites, but I certainly don't enjoy Palpatine because I think he's a good guy, and I certainly don't dislike Kylo for merely being a villain.  There's a very significant amount of arbitary aesthetics involved in getting me to like a character, and Kylo just doesn't really check those boxes for me whereas Palpatine very definitively does.  

I'm really excited by their actual juxtaposition in this film, though, which is something I never dreamed would happen when I wrote that post over a year ago.  I'm not sure if the film will actually highlight the similarity of the two characters, but there's certainly an incredible opportunity for it being presented here.  I mean, I just really want to see these two characters interact or be compared in some way.
