You know both sides of the story but you still don't know who is being honest.

@SnailTeeth not quite

@Lovebird Sure it is. Most villains are the protagonist from their POV, and usually have sound reasoning to define who they are. Most people need to innately feel good about themselves. You'd be surprised at the mental gymnastics the mind can pull.

@SnailTeeth I know, but a villian believing they're good doesn't mean they are still

@Lovebird Neither does popular opinion, as that also changes.
In some cultures, honesty is not considered a virtue, but rather an iniquity.

@Lovebird And just about anyone can find support for the echo chamber in which they exist. Truth is highly subjective, unless it's an objective truth. Which it rarely is in social situations.

@SnailTeeth like, if you see a serial killer, you wouldnt think they are villians?

@Lovebird Were the killings impulsive or premeditated? What was the trauma that led to that behavior? No. I think we're all victims and prisoners here, fated to play our roles.
