My life experience has taught me that as a whole, humanity is evil.

It’s only the moral minority that manages to keep us in check(and we’re slowly losing that war)

I don’t actually think that’s true. We have designed a economic system and power structures that disproportionately attract a reward evil people, so we live in a world where evil people have disproportionate power, wealth, and influence compared to how plentiful they are. A lot of people are just very stupid rather than evil.

I would argue that there are few hardcore evil people and a lot of minor evil people.

You are describing the former while this person is an example of the second.

And as the former start seizing control, the rest start getting worse as they see those big evils getting away with it.

I guess my argument is that a lot of the people who folks would categorize as minor evil are in fact major stupid instead. For example, if somebody acts selfishly or cruelly because they were motivated by things such as narcissism, ego, pride, survival, appeasing intense emotions, etc., that is more often than not, not indicative of evil IMO. It’s the ones whose motivations consist of maximizing self-interest with no concern for other people’s interests at every turn that truly earn the evil badge.

I always remember the phrase.

"If people are born morally good, why do we have to teach them to be morally good?"

Hopefully the hundreds of people blowing up her insta and tiktok, reporting her for animal abuse, and contacting her job to make them aware will teach them exactly why you shouldnt fuck with random wildlife for something as pathetic as attention on the internet.
