    I once heard someone say evil is just easy but being good, doing good is hard.
    It’s instinctual to seek out the easiest path forward, which is typically, usually the evil option.
    Good is rarely the easy option. It often requires some sort of sacrifice on our part in order to achieve what we are attempting to achieve. But that is also why good feels different than evil.
    Evil can be done and many times is a passive act. Good often can and does require action and active engagement.
    Ultimately I think it comes down to agency with our own lives, whether we believe we have it, if we perceive we don’t, and whether we choose to use our agency for what we believe is good, or choose to use it for evil.

    • @Nykandros
      @Nykandros 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

      Nah, these are mental gymnastics that those who lack volition tell themselves. In reality, the dividing line between "evil" and "good" is that of strength. Evil fundamentally involves the imposition of your own will upon the world around you, which the vast majority of people are either too physically frail or mentally incompetent to do. Most don't even have the ability/will to earn a comfortable wage, how are they going to be "evil"? Lmao. The lack of claws does not imply goodness.
      The "evil" person must be a go-getter, an achiever. He must have the will (and THE SKILL) to dominate in all areas; socially, financially, politically. He must be sharpened to all threats that would impede his rise (and there are many). He must be single-minded, determined, and unflinching in a world which tells him his ambitions are fairy-tales. He stays true to himself, never betraying who he is for some external "cause" or motive; his identity is wholly his own. And in the end, he takes what he wants out of life.
      As for evil being "quicker", this is simply because evil is more effective; it's not easier by any means (which is why the majority of people don't fit the above archetype of person). It's concerned with how the world really works; IE. relations of force, dominance & power supersede all other concerns. Thus evil tactics are much more effective in the real world, because we live in the real world. The most powerful people in the history of our species were "evil"; Alexander, Caesar, Napoleon, Genghis. "Good" isn't concerned with gaining material, real-world superiority; it hopelessly abandons this in favor of moral/spiritual superiority. This is a cathartic cope for those who are less capable in the material arenas of life.
      The path of evil is the path of never-ending conflict in the chase for power. War against all that isn't you, so that you may reign over all that isn't you. Good frequently involves mass-groups of lower quality lifeforms passively banding together for some common purpose; but evil is the desire to actively realize your OWN individual ambitions by any means.

      ​@@semplybalanced3210honestly I don't really agree I can understand the motivational side of what you guys trying to say but whether or not you are self-improving or come off as weak or strong really has nothing to do with good or evil I'll be honest with you. And sometimes I actually think it's the opposite. It's actually harder doing evil things especially since most of us have even temperament. Really go try to walk through the street of wherever you live and just shoot at someone with a BB gun. Do you really think you are strong enough to pull it off. And if you have a moral compass and you listen to it does that make you weak?

      It's not mental gymnastics to tell you moral knowledge.
      It's actually not that hard to do at least in local settings of your own, that's why being evil is still easier. Something needs to change for the wage slave predicament but just because people can or can't live a life they want doesn't mean they can't be evil, evil comes in both genders, all shapes, all backgrounds, all ethnicities.
      Nobody says it's the lack of straws that's a total strawman, it's knowing WHEN to use them and HOW while also knowing not to go to far. A general gist of what people mean by that can be that a nice man is a doormat and worse but a kind man is a warrior in a garden.
      What percentage of those people are we talking about? What kind? Schwab? Epstien? Those guys are outliers. Humans are social creatures and from an evolutionary standpoint the people your talking about always got the short end of the stick or worse and that's for a reason.
      People in general have to hone their skills, have will, be competent in finance and the like regardless, it doesn't matter if the person is good or bad what your saying is a universal constant a timeless one at that so its not just limited to evil people, that's the real mental gymnastics. Essentially those types of people won't care how it affects anyone else but in the end its struggling just the same. And by that logic you unknowingly proved yourself wrong because the person who can maintain their morality and rise to the top of their respective fields without harming others? I mean why is this even a conversation to be had? To do that and maintain morality 9 times out of ten will always take more skills, will, and determined meanwhile the so called evil guy took the easy way by only caring for himself.
      I hate when people say "not for SOME x" because it almost always leads to a fundamental misunderstanding of somethings usage and viability, there is absolutely nothing wrong to have an external cause or motive, the reason you can sit here and basically prove OPs point about how easy it is to be evil is because of men and women throughout history identifying with an internal BUT ALSO external cause and motivations were in the alignment of goodness and not evil, for example, US civil war, abolishing slavery world wide, people helping each other after Katrina, etc.
      Once again your proving OP right and yourself wrong, I already went over this in depth some paragraph ago but I'll reiterate some key points, by the apparent virtue of evil being more effective (which in of itself is highly debatable) wouldn't that be saying that evil is easier? That's a rhetorical question because the answer is yes that's why me and OP and the first replier all hold that same value of good being the harshest but ultimately good path in contrast to evil which unless your part of the dark triad you will meet a very lonely end. You gave no proof or reason as to why it's not easier, when you said "effective" you already poked a major hole in your entire stance, by definition for something to be more effective it also has to be easier.
      This only is really paid in practice in wage slavery corporation jobs and not any other fields, you think there's some ultra judge holden type of person in being a vet? Doctor? Plumber? And the like? Obviously yeah but with your very very VERY broad generalization of basically every topic you mentioned that number isn't high most likely. This feels more of a caricature of reality then reality itself because even when you bring up those people not a lot of them had good endings and Hitler was literally defeated by good people.
      Those are very influential people you named but there's also influential good people you most likely never heard of because you've been conditioned to think those are the only powerful people
      Brian Boru, high king of Ireland
      Frederick the Great (Prussia)
      Marcus Aurelius (Roman Empire)
      Matthias Corvinus (Hungary)
      Alfred the Great is the only English king to wear that epithet, and it's for a good reason. He encouraged the spread of education, fortified English townships against continued aggression by England's Danish occupiers, formed political and military alliances that allowed the preservation of Christianity and Anglo-Saxon rule in England, and set the stage for his successors to form what would one day be the unified Kingdom of England. And he did all of that while suffering from a severe illness.
      Mansa the richest man in history made a kingdom for people of all creeds and types.
      So those people you want to claim as the sole most powerful of our species is wrong especially considering they were only powerful because of politics and the MEN aka the armies they had, if Abraham Lincoln or Washington or any modern day military with moral leaders were to face the people you mentioned, Khan, Ceasar etc would be left in the dirt. I'm not even gonna get into what humanity was like before the floods, you want to talk about how evil is the most effective way but pre flood civilizations will tell you very differently, if you want to actually expand your knowledge of reality and like look into Ufology and research respected people like Vallee and Lee. Moral and spiritual superiority always wins for a reason, it's not just something that happens in stories its a tried and true universal constant.
      The dehumanization of your fellow men and women because they aren't pieces of shit is actually quite disgusting, what makes these people low quality life forms? Because they don't think for themselves but instead the greater good? The reason you can even say something this childishly foolish is because of these "low quality lifeforms" who fought and died for us to be here in the world it is today, we have the least wars going on and despite evil attempts its still the most moral time period. You want to know what low quality lifeforms are? Look at your own list of powerful people of people who've tried to commit genocide, in the progress of their rampage men and women AND CHILDREN were killed and tortured and raped en mass, pushing negative science like eugenics. That's low quality lifeforms people who in the end die for material things.
      Your comment before the "low quality lifeforms" was clearly not thought through and juvenile so I had no problem responding to that but your low quality lifeforms comment irked me because of how disgusting, dehumanizing, and flat out wrong it is, I said it before I'll say it again, the only reason you can spew your half assed and poorly researched slop is because the good people of this world died for it not "low quality lifeforms" if these band of not even Human entities banded together against the evil people of this world (who let me tell you, sacrifice, kidnap, torture, rape, murder, etc women men and CHILDREN, people who are keeping our real history from us) would you stand on that side or us, the "low quality lifeforms"? Your answer will either show you as a hypocrite if you say yes or your OK with CHILDREN the most innocent of all life in our world being transgressed against in horrible ways to which that tells me all I need to know.

    Eren didn't lose his mind. He was in a situation where if he didn't rumble, his people would all be killed. Literally them or us, and he chose us. Putting that aside, he also wasn't some psychopath. He broke down crying over what the situation he was in was forcing him to do. He also wasn't cold. He was acting cold towards his friends to push them away so that he could do what he had to do. He was not insane. Eggman is not even close to Eren. Eggman wants to conquer the world just because. Eren wants his people not to be killed. Kind of a big difference.

    •  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      He was out of his mind. The original plan was to already use the rumble. There was no reason for him to use in the way he did, doing something that he have already said wouldn't work (creating a common enemy). The thing is, he losing his mind made sense because of the multiple futures he witness, bro just wanted to end things as soon as he could. Just adding to the point. You are right about Eren char.

    We're detached from the feelings of others. Even more so in the context of media consumption.
    What discourages us from acting like a selfish sociopath isn't simply a lack of power or charisma. It's empathy.
    We read manipulation as charisma and authenticity as insecurity. We have it backward.
    What we admire about the selfish sociopath is that they get what they want, but what motivates them to work so hard towards their goals is their insecurity. They're motivated to throw dirt over their own weakness so they can continue to pretend it isn't there.
    And we look at the human pile of dirt and think "wow, they have no insecurities"
    It's just the naiveté of a child. No one helped us grow up and become emotionally mature. Once you find the type of community that helps you grow and accept yourself, weakness and all, you start to see the dirt for what it is... Something repugnant.

    Really I think that heroes tend to either be
    A: Too close to perfect or inconceivably fortunate in some way i.e. Goku is an alien born of a race bred for war on earth amongst humans. Superman is an alien from a planet of guess what... SUPERMEN. Bruce Wayne inherited a fortune of nearly unlimited resources. Naruto had a legendary giant demon fox spirit put inside him as a baby. Trunks is the son of a prince alien and a genius's daughter and built a time machine. Dante is the son of Satan. And, Or
    B: Characteristically they simply have few flaws of character to begin with. Few of us are pure of heart and mind to relate to such wholesome chars. I bet no one reading this would volunteer their search history incognito tab included. Or mist of us are honestly morally ambiguous depending on the situation. Whose never lied to get out of trouble as a kid or called into work stating your sick when you just don't feel like going or was really just hungover or stoned and like F it? Who doesn't have a dirty thought or two every so often? Who just can't stand certain personalities? Who doesn't mind seeing an adversary fail or laugh at another's misfortune from time to time even without ill intent like an episode of ridiculousness or something 😂.
    The Villains tend to be more relatable because they're flawed almost inherently but don't hide it and in society we constantly must conceal, ignore, tame and regulate certain thoughts and urges. Villains don't care to do so. Like my fav Character is Vash but Millions Knives was my ninja because he had hate in his heart and as Clayton Bigsby once said "IF YOU HAVE HATE IN YOUR HEART LET IT OUT" 😂

    While villains think too much about other people, and they commit atricious things for sake of their evil Altruistic ideas. They destroy their own identity by focusing themselves to do "What is right" by sacrificing others and even themselves.
    Real Hero does everything for themselves, and for themselves in other people. Because every person, is you.

    For me, the first character who comes to mind in conversations like these is Tony Montana. I’m generally not one to sympathize with the villain but Tony Montana is one of my favorite characters. On one hand, he‘s incredibly scary and mirrors (less badass) men I‘ve interacted with in real life which, especially as a woman I find frightening. On the other hand, I do look up to him in some sort. I don't aspire to be an insane drug lord, however, his charm and intelligence are something I tried to adapt. Also in this particular example, it does play a role that we get to see Tony grow from when he had nothing to being a self-made millionaire

    Thank you! For me it is about subconsciously recognizing traits that can help me survive my own situations. Sometimes I copy traits from heroes. But there have also been times I have handpicked traits from villains, normally during more difficult times. Idealism is great. But it sometimes acts as a handicap to surviving hard situations. I guess that is the point of idealism. Striving for an outcome where you can save everyone, even if it is harder. But I want to save me. I know that sounds terrible.

    Nah. I find those villains you listed to be fools, blinded too much with some sort of goal that they sacrifice their own identity and happiness, for the sake of always being on edge. Those villains have the most most vile trait - Altruism. The trait that makes people abandon themselves and other for the sake of "Greater good"
    I'd prefer to be a Hero. With most heroic trait. Egoism. I love myself, and i love others who love themselves. I love myself in other people, and other people in myself.

    If you really think about it, we are all gonna end up as dust one day. If you detach yourself from the idea that there is god or anything and that you are the master of your life, then a really scary realization comes to mind: What ever you do is only up to yourself, what ever choice you make will be both wrong and right and the consequences are just a reaction to your choices, you and only you are to blame for everything, both good and shitty (this is basically the first part of your made up quote). Most people can't handle the weight of that realization and simply choose to go through their entire life blindly... It is an easy life to live. You are just a victim of your life situation and others, you did everything right and others made you fail. This is the second part of your quote.
    Something interesting I noticed, if you want to be powerful in the traditional sense, you need to be greedy.
    If you want to be powerful in the real sense (from my personal perspective), you need to know your mind and not be afraid to say no and stick to what you want regardless of the consequences.
    A true power comes from the ability to change. If you can change to a smallest degree that shows more power then the people who have more wealth will ever have. It is something that can be learned but requires a lot of patience...
    There is how ever a middle ground to both these perspectives and its the most pragmatic solution at the end of the day: Tell everyone what they want to hear and do what you want and in the way you will it. Most important, don't say, just do. Push forward without regret and keep on course. At the end of the day, we will all die and life really has no consequences...

    I'd say two characters that the normal everyday Joe should idolize to beat depression/the overwhelming weight of a shitty job or a shitty lover or some other form of villainy that is more subtle and dull, would be Saitama and Mumen Rider. These guys are literally two sides of the same heroic coin imo. One represents the emotional struggles of our generation, the fact that things can come so easy yet what we really want seems impossible to reach, and then how to deal w all that baggage. Mumen Rider is the physical/genetic inability to be "one of the greats". You can probably never be the next Mike Tyson or Ali or Michael Jackson no matter how much you try. You won't be a hero 1v100ing terrorists if there eber was an attack, you won't be a world-savior who comes up with the cure for cancer in a few nights. But you can still be you, doing what you can for those around AND yourself.
