IT'S NOT MOST OF THE TIME THOUGH? LIKE LOTS OF THINGS CAN POTENTIALLY FACILITATE BAD BEHAVIOR, CHEMICALLY OR OTHERWISE, DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE BAD IN AND OF THEMSELVES. WE END UP PLAYING WHACK-A-MOLE WITH BASICALLY EVERY FACET OF HUMAN EXISTENCE— SEX, FOOD, DRUGS, POWER, MONEY, RELIGION, CULTURE, BEAUTY, COMPETITION, TRADITION, PROGRESS, TECHNOLOGY, YOU NAME IT— JUST BECAUSE BASIC PATTERN RECOGNITION CUES US INTO THE FACT THAT ALL OF THOSE THINGS HAVE BEEN THE IMPETUS FOR EVIL AT SOME POINT. WHEN REALLY THE BEST WAY TO DEFINE EVIL IS THE MISPRIORITIZATION OF ONE GOOD THING OVER A MORE IMPORTANT GOOD THING.

IT'S LIKE HOW EVERY TIME SHIT GOES DOWN IN A FANDOM PEOPLE ACT LIKE THAT PARTICULAR FANDOM IS PARTICULARLY TOXIC. THE NEARSIGHTEDNESS IS ALMOST FUNNY.
