Here's another one to add to the list of evil bastards !!! Prince Andrew on the photograph, meeting the sex offender and the four-day house stay
I think I'm with you here (but that might only affirm your assertion... ). Sure, it's evident people can do or be things that can very well be described as evil. But that's just a word for really bad. Evil is not an actual state, like being disturbed. Which people who are seen as evil most often are.
Yes. It's an incredibly unpopular stance in my experience but I often feel empathy for people who do "evil" things because all I see is that their lives often are painful for them. I don't mean to say what they do is okay, but until we start approaching it from a place of kindness rather than revenge, I don't think we will see a decrease in evil.
Well if people approach it from a place of revenge than maybe they are just as "evil" but much more suppressed. I feel evil is more a fear based term.
Out of that bunch, I'll go with the North Korea guy. I wonder if we tend to view ''evil'' as a matter of how many lives someone is affecting. We tend to view Hitler, and other tyrannical types as ''evil,'' because of the mass genocide that happened on their watches. But, someone could kill one person, and be just as evil. Someone could be a bully, and be just as evil, not murdering anyone at all. It's just an observation.
All I know is once Trump was a little two year old, so was Hitler.. And the rest. They weren't "evil" then. They were innocent children. The life they lived caused them to become the people they are, with the beliefs and ideals they hold. When did they become "evil"? Was there a definite moment? An action, or just a thought? We're all responsible for the way the world is. Hate, in all its forms, is one of the main things which turn babies into adults that the majority write off as evil.
