I think that being as smart as he was he sometimes thought too much and didn't see the obvious. For example, he thinks that his mother was this caring woman when in fact she was a ruthless bitch; he launches this rebellion to avenge her and sacrifices a ton of lives, including those of people who loved him...all based on basically lies and misconceptions.
He thinks of his siblings as if they were monsters when in fact they all pretty much loved him and Nunnaly. Early on he mentions that his mother's murder and their subsequent exile is a result of their half-commoner blood; he even suspects Cornelia of the murders. However in the series none of the royal family except for that Carline or w/e seemed to have any ill feelings towards them. Everybody seemed to talk highly of Marianne, they admired and respected her.
Lelouch was just an asshole, which I assume he got from his mother lol.

If you put it that way, he's simply an ignorant asshole who is paranoid to even the ones who care for him. But his ignorance should be justified because basically, he can't risk himself to go back to Britannia and plainly ask for the truth. Of course, if I was an exile prince who lost my mother and everyone is keeping quiet of it, I would assume everyone is my enemy and get an answer through a vendetta. Knowing that Britannia is abusing Japan, it's safe to assume he couldn't do it the way Suzaku planned all along; by changing it from the inside.
And seriously, after that twist where his mother was actually conspiring with his father, it's like a slap to the face that everything he has done from the beginning was all for naught. Very disappointing.
