10. A lot of people don't believe that people can be so evil, but I've thought that that is just naive

I had to endure a lot of bullying when I was young by bullies, which attacked me for nothing more than me just not fitting in well. Their complete lack of humanity for the harm they were doing me showed me evil early in my life (and they also were enabled by timid teachers who didn’t care to defend me.)

Then the eight years of the Bush Administration showed me that many of these bullies grow up and stay evil. Seeing the behavior of Republicans within the last 20 years at least shows me that pure evil is a real thing, and just like the villains in movies that take advantage of a hero who’s willing to spare them before they could kill them off, that you can’t expect pure evil to have a change of heart, and will likely do even more despicable acts of evil.
