  • Not the person you replied to, but I’d like to offer another perspective

    There’s a difference between describing things, and giving someone credit.

    Hitler loving his dogs doesn’t make him not responsible for heinous crimes. It seems odd to me to suggest we not acknowledge that that’s what people who do monstrous things look like

    They’re messy and complicated and have traits most would assess as good, and in many ways that only adds to their danger. They don’t look like storybook villians, they look like human beings. They love dogs. At times they say reasonable, even compelling things. They make art. They had childhoods, and families, and loved ones. They suffer and bleed and experience joy like any human being does. And the closer you look, the more human they get.

    And then they kill 17 million people.
