I don't think the current Kaneki is as twisted and cruel as most people say. He had to sacrifice Kanae in order to save Tsukiyama. There's no way he could have saved both of them without getting himself into trouble. He distanced himself from the Quinx in order to protect them because if the CCG find out that his memories returned they are going to treat the quinx like Kanekis accomplices and get rid of them. (Furthermore, if he just quit being their mentor or if he totally cut ties with them is yet to be seen). The current Kaneki is a realist. He's perceptive and knows what's the best thing to do in certain situations. He tries his best to make as few losses as possible but not at the cost of his own life. So I disagree when people say he's like post-aogiri Kaneki. Post-Aogiri Kaneki was utterly selfless and tried to protect everyone at the cost of his own peaceful life (a trait for which he was criticized by Touka). Before Kaneki "died" he also acknowledged that Touka was right. So I doubt he will repeat the mistake. The current Kaneki cherishes his life unlike the previous Kaneki.
