Fandoms also like pointing to innocent hurt characters to contrast with the villains and say that if those characters could suffer without becoming villains, the villains could have done it too, so they don't get a second chance. I wonder if I'd have become a villain if my life had been worse. I wonder if the only reason I'm not a horrible person is because I've had a pretty good life. I wonder if there's some inherent evil in me that just hasn't met the right conditions to be awakened. It sounds dramatic, but the way fandoms talk about characters as if there are good victims (the innocent hurt people) and bad victims (the people who become villains because they were hurt) and the bad ones don't deserve redemption because if they were capable of being good, they would have responded to pain like the innocent hurt people did instead of turning villainous. Maybe real people really are like that and maybe I'm one of them.

There's no such thing as inherent good or inherent evil in humans, IMO. Humans are morally neutral as a baseline.
