It’s an excellent article marred by the last line/ heading.

People do things.

Good or bad is relative to their own biases/experiences/ beliefs and moral compass.

Very few people are truly sociopaths who do evil stuff for personal gain.

Most do it because of the curse of the “banality of evil” (re: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eichmann_in_Jerusalem?wprov=sf...>)

Doesn’t make it right, but like everything else in life the reality is much more complex than saying “good people refuse to do bad things”
