- mikkupikku 9mo agoIn real life, not disney movies made for simple minded children, lazy apathy is what most real evil looks like. Please see "the banality of evil."
- luckylion 9mo agoAt which point do you cross the line? Somebody who murders to take someone else's money is ultimately just too lazy to provide value in return for money, so they're not evil?
- kibwen 9mo agoWhen apathy results in harm to others and benefits to oneself, those others are allowed to appropriately label that apathy as evil.
- trvz 9mo agoYou can call them bad or shitty or something else. True evil is different.
- kibwen 9mo agoIf someone wants to be bad or shitty in a way that harms nobody but themselves, then more power to them. That's freedom. If someone wants to be bad or shitty in a way that makes their lives own better while making the lives of everyone around them worse, that's evil and parasitic, and I'm not going to wring my hands about labeling it as such.
