I am not saying they aren't horrible people. But to say this person is horrible and I am going to ignore any good qualities is a failure of thinking. How many benefits can you lose because you fail to see any benefits hiding under the evil.

Hitler was evil. No doubt there. It is said that he never killed anyone except himself. It was the coercion of others that caused all the deaths and you can't ignore that. He had what he called 'the big lie'. A lie so big that it couldn't possibly be true. There was the Reishtag fire that put him in office. There was the wonderful things he did for his people, before he took his power and did horrible things. What we learned from him helps us avoid history repeating. Because mentioning Hitler usually ends conversations, many don't see that 9/11 was our Reishtag fire. The pandemic was our 'big lie'. The focus on one person (which president will save us) when it is really the Mass Formation Psychosis that is controlling so many and causing them to do horrible things are all downfalls by the thinking that you can't learn from evil people being good at one time.
