@@arthurfleck629 It illustrates the nature of capability, of power. Many people concern themselves overly with morality and overlook what precedes it. They are small, and lack the capacity to be truly good or evil.
The opposite to any emotion is indifference. At first I thought it was just for love, but when someone acts indifferent in any array of emotions thrown towards them, it completely negates them. The best comparison I can think of is how light is white and can split into many different colours, yet its opposite black is a singularity
The opposite of love isn't hate; it's indifference. The polar end of passion, longing and desire? Apathy. In this way hatred and love are neighbours more than strangers.
Hence haters that bring Pestilence canbe held in "Indiffererence to" State.Works for many "TRUE" Humans. A percentage of us were lucky to have been taught this fact. And, is why professional dark phychology Narcs (*"well used"career criminals)study ways to toy with/tamper with what is :"ALREADY ALRIGHT" to make situation appear to bethe opposite of actual facts--is sooo 👽alienating!🙄🤕🤐
My Sister is a psychology major and showed me this channel in the hopes that it could help me develop my own writing and I cannot state how much I have learned from your videos, Particularly the ones on Griffith, Tywin Lannister and Emperor Palpatine, I have a great interest in crafting a villain who feels real and justified in doing the corrupt and vile things he does in my story and I’d like to think maybe he can appear in a video series like this.
Same here. In your writings I would consider the exploration of Sheev Palpatine, who many could say was born evil. This is a creature who I might suggest had always been Darth Sidious before he was ever Sheev Palpatine, despite what the histories say. I expect that his first act upon birth was to savagely bite his mother's nipple when she first tried to breastfeed him. His first instinct upon birth was not to cry out, but to hurt someone. His first lesson was to hide his evil under a veneer of goodness, to disguise brutality with civility and patience. An engineered being, the product of the Sith Grand Plan and centuries of research in the Dark Side, his mother an unwitting and unknowing vessel to carry this cancer to term and ignorantly inflict him upon the galaxy and the living world as a whole.
@@Robert_Douglass Buddy you have no idea how much I needed to hear this, This is a really good setup for a future antagonist I had ideas for but needed a bit more fleshing out and the idea of being born evil would actually be a good catalyst for where I want that section to go. Thanks a million bud
I’ve always said that people aren’t born evil, they were bred to be evil. Whether it’s the environment they grew up in, their family, a certain individual taking advantage of them ,bullying them, or abusing them. Every villain both in reality or in fiction, has a background and you’ll never get the same background twice. We as human beings are capable of doing great things to one another but we are also capable of doing horrendous acts of cruelty towards other human beings. It’s our decisions that we make in everyday life that makes us heroes and villains. Keep up the great work and have a great day.
You don't understand Sheev Palpatine then. He was written as a character that was completely and irredeemably evil from the very beginning. He would be the only exception to the maxim that none are born evil, that they are made evil by their choices or their upbringing. Sheev Palpatine was truly born evil.
@@Robert_Douglass I’m actually glad you brought up Sheev Palpatine because growing up with the original Star Wars trilogy since I was 3, I found him more interesting than Darth Vader because he was like a puppet master and he not only controlled the empire but he also controlled Vader like a watchdog. I tend to overlook villains like Palpatine because I tend to find villains like Frank Booth, Billy from Black Christmas (1974), Alex Delarge, and Buffalo Bill more disturbing because they are closer to reality even though they are fictional. Any fictional character can be written to be evil from the time they were born but when it comes to reality, that’s a completely different story. But that’s what makes memorable villains like Palpatine, Michael Myers, and Hannibal Lecter so interesting is because you wonder why they became evil. In my personal opinion, I personally hate it when fictional villains are given backgrounds because it ruins the mystique about them. Take the original Halloween for example, we were never given any information on why Michael Myers became evil. All we knew was that he killed his sister at the age of six and we didn’t know why he killed her. It was left to us as the audience to figure that out with our imaginations and that is truly horrifying to think about. Have a great day and thank you for your input.
@@BeyondDaX It is indisputable, but that doesn't mean we can't change it. We can learn to be better than what we are now, we've been improving our lot as a species since we emerged from our caves and started growing crops. It is indisputable that our capacity for violence and exploitation has only grown along with us, but so has our capacity for compassion and kindness. Like I said, we can grow, and we can learn to be better than what we are.
Cannot get over how this short starts with a close up shot of a grinning Anakin Skywalker in a sunny field, and ends with a gull body shot of Darth Vader, surrounded in darkness on a cold space ship. Absolutely incredible.
True. After all, while there are plenty of works of fiction and entertainment that I dislike, the only ones I really hate are the ones I consider perversions of something I love in some way.
The line between good and evil is truth and deceit. The actions of the great heroes and villains in famous stories are usually the same. Usually the only difference is the villain is using deceit and the hero is using truth. Evil: use lies and get what you want at any cost. Good: be honest and protect what you want at any cost.
I challenge you to look at child Murderers (that is to say kids that have murdered others) or look up the story of a man who killed his family simply because he wanted to play video games rather than work and tell me pure evil doesn’t exist. The people who say “Evil doesn’t exist” have never witnessed evil and are blind to it.
Indifference will always be the opposite of love; hatred is still a feeling for something. Indifference is the lack of any feeling, and way more hurtful than love or hate.
@@user-lx3qt8zg5f agree to disagree. When you either love or hate someone, it's a feeling, indifference from someone you thought loved you hurts more. Like you are not even worth the time to love or hate.
@@chrisb4131 that isn’t indifference, that’s apathy, indifference is more of not really having an opinion on something That’s why it’s the middle grind of all emotions
"As for the people out there who hold hatred in their hearts that isn't justified..." Bill the Butcher looking annoyed for being called out. Awesome edit there!
Hatred is a powerful emotion that has the potential to motivate people to committing unspeakable acts of evil upon those they immensely despise with a passion. This has been used in multiple works of fiction all throughout history and this feeling is something that is still very alive to this day & absolutely for countless years to come & pass. As strange as this may sound given what I’ve already stated, hatred can also be a force for good if focused on the right matters, so it’s not allows a evil driving force in itself; it solely depends on what individual wields it and what they’d desire to use it for in this ever changing world we all inhabit.
This is a very well thought of perspective. So much I think I'm agreeing and using it. The last time I had this much of a change was 20 years ago in high school when in speech class a student speech was arguing "Money isn't the root of all evil. Want is."
The opposite of love isnt hate. To hate one must first know love. To not know love is to know apathy. And, compaired to hate, Apathy is a far more dangerous emotion.
@@Reiman33 Lack of action can be just as dangerous as over action. And in the case of Apathy it is primarily self-destructive. True apathy isnt depression, its Psychopathy.
Love your channel, Vile Eye!!! 3 of my favorite villains are Hans Landa and Monsieur and Stephen Candy and your videos on all 3 are superb!! The way you word things, your insight and understanding of the subject matter are admirable!!! Thank you!!!
Yes, and those corrupted by their fixations on one of the more intangible virtues - justice, knowledge, art - sometimes make for the most memorable case studies of all.
This is why I define pure evil not as Death, or Chaos, but the Corruption of something that was once good into something that brings only devastation. Same goes for sadness, as it draws from happiness. One must have felt a happiness before they can know Sadness. Love before they can know hatred, Hope before Despair.
I have a theory: given that Ozai said Zuko was lucky to be born, I wonder if his own father told him the same. Maybe Iroh was considered the favorite child and he projects onto Zuko.
I’d say Love has no true opposite. It can be there, or not be there. And when it’s not, it’s only a matter of what twisted reflection of it we’ll try to use to fill the void.
Really good short. Would love to see something like this expanded to explain the nature of evil and how it similarly only can arise from a corruption of good.
I love how this starts and ends with Anakin Skywalker/ Darth Vader, considering he is one of the best example of a character who's love for everyone and everything around him was then turned to hate
My ex-wife betrayed me in ways that I won't go into, which brought on a feeling of absolute hatred for her. But, when I looked deeper into myself, it wasn't that I hated her. In fact I still loved her immensely, but her betrayal led me to turn that love into something corrupted. If I really didn't love her I wouldn't hate her, I would just not care. Fortunately, I'm moving towards forgiveness and letting go of the hatred. It's a much better place to be in.
@@Reiman33 That is why it is self awareness that allows you to see your actions and how you conduct yourself in life. Because in truth there is a light side and dark side and within it there is a shade of light in the dark and a shade of dark in the light. There is a question without a simple answer because each person is different and again we are a blank slate a virgin of the world.
Additionally, that love can be for yourself or love of your viewpoints or ideals, If someone kills 20 innocent people you have never met you would still likely hate them, because it goes against your ideals and morals you hold so dear.
love and hate are two expressions of passion so I would say it's more like they're two faces of the coin called passion for you can neither love nor hate anything without being passionate
Hate isn't necessarily bad. Hate is a driving force, hate makes us act, it makes us alert, it compels us to act against our enemies and fight. Would Hitler have been defeated without hate? The Kaiser? Napoleon? Just like indiscriminate love can be detrimental, so can indiscriminate hate, it has to be directed and laser focussed on your enemy. So, just like Gordon Gecko used to say, "greed is good", I say "hate is healthy"!
The first time I said i hated something my momma sat me down and told me she knew i didn't. Because to hate something is to want to destroy it utterly.. since then I've stopped saying i hated anything.
It's incredible the kind of twisted logic people will use to justify the asinine, pointless and obviously false notion that love and hate are not opposites. And you don't need love to hate someone. That's like saying to hate one flavor of ice cream I must love another.
If you don't mind, might I argue against what you have said? You base your belief on a seemingly logical argument. But I would argue that you didn't go deep enough. Using your flavor example, I would say you still are missing where the love is, in this case. I hate mexican food for example. I don't just hate mexican food for no reason. It goes against my sensibilities and what I find to be good about certain cuisines. If someone hates chocolate ice cream, it's because they love the taste of something else, to the point that the flavor of chocolate is agitating, because it goes against their sensibilities or is incompatible or deficient in what they prefer. There is always a reason why we hate something. And it is always rooted in the love of something else that we find exclusive; or that thing we love contains what we desire, and anything else is offensive, especially the further it deviates in nature from that thing we love. Yes, even regarding ice cream flavors.
@@saxonisrael8398 I don't mind at all. I welcome it. But I must firmly disagree. I can hate a flavor of ice cream because it tastes bad. I don't need to like any other flavor. I can hate something without contrasting it to something else.
@@Robbie32 Thanks. I suppose this is where the impasse will be found, but still I must resist you further. I would argue that, true, you don't have to like any flavor of ice cream to hate a certain flavor. However, I would argue that you still LOVE a certain flavor or texture or food/eating sensation that is so entirely different to that hated ice cream flavor. It doesn't necessarily mean that you have to love any flavor of ice cream; but rather you love some other flavor or eating sensation that you derive from another source. And that you love it so much, that you hate that certain other flavor. You hate it, because it is so offensive to your preferred eating sensations/experience. Now if you actually HATE that flavor, as opposed to just thinking that it is blah, or mediocre, that is because you consciously or subconsciously love another eating sensation. If you DIDN'T LOVE another eating sensation, then you would be apathetic or hardly dislike it so much. This is the passion of love and hate the video is talking about.
@@saxonisrael8398 Indeed, it seems that we may simply have a different perspective on the matter. But I admire your persistence. I'll admit, your logic is hard to deny. And it may even be accurate in most cases. But I still think that you can hate something in and of itself. To give an extreme hypothetical, let's say that I hate literally everything. There is not a single thing that I have even the slightest fondness towards. I cannot conceive of anything better. I hold a bitter contempt for every notion that I can comprehend. Surely in this case, my hatred cannot be in contrast to any feelings of love for something else.
@@Robbie32 In that case I would say you are totally right. I would also say there has never lived a man who has hated each and everything ever conceived of, nor will there ever be, nor can there even be. That's not the nature of man. If you can find a man who genuinely hates everything that has ever been, please show him to me. I appreciate your responses btw.
In terms of romance turned sour, I think betrayal is the catalyst by which love turns to hatred, because it leaves you with absolutely nothing. Every positive memory you have with that person is tainted by it, every kiss, every 'I love you', they're all corrupted because the sincerity of it all comes into question, making the whole damn relationship a complete and utter waste of time. Instead of fond memories, you're left with nothing but pain. The people I loathe the most in this world are those whom I once loved, some very deeply.
I’ve found this idea very interesting considering there are certain characters and people who seem to have never loved yet still hate I.e. Voldemort, Palpatine, etc. almost like that love was corrupted before it was ever realized
This channel has put in place something so simple yet satisfying. I love cinema, and the plots that come with it.. and it just makes it much better to hold the villains and antagonists under the spotlight rather than the hero… they ARE, after all, the cause for which great heroes and stories come from. 👾👁
Indifference does have anything to do with evil, evil comes from anything, indifference is just a feeling of true neutrality and the feeling of not wanting to pick any sides
