RE: Steem Basic Income Giveaway (Being Evil...)
I think everyone of course has the potential to do both good and evil. And there are people that are drawn to both extremes, for instance: Mother Theresa and Hitler. Who can saw what circumstances or factors brought out the best and the worst in these two examples? I think it's kind of sad though that I can immediately think of a large number of people who are famous for being "evil" and only a few that are known for being "good". It's not nearly as well publicized, so what does that say about us as a society, always sensationalizing and broadcasting bad behavior?
Well... I would wonder if Hitler and Mother Theresa were the epitome of extreme in all aspects? After all, there is more and more information coming out that Mother Theresa was not a great saint in all aspects of her life... and Hitler... well, he did what he did in the interests of furthering his particular tribal grouping to greatness....
However, you are right... more often bad intent is much more interesting as a story than good...
