It’s a big mistake to judge everything through political or racial prisms.

Evil exists. People grow up twisted, and hurt other people.

White or black, right or left.

Well said. It is easy to fall into it, but sometimes, evil is just evil.

I have always felt that recognition is a key cleavage point between conservatism and liberalism.

Liberals just don’t generally believe real evil exists (until it bites them in the buttocks) and that all humans are basically good, but are corrupted by (INSERT SOME FACTOR HERE).

Conservatives believe that evil exists, and it has to be taken into account in our everyday considerations and dealt with for what it is.
