This is human nature · 5:31am Aug 7th, 2016
If want to know where I believe the banal-evil portions of human nature come from, I believe that it starts with this:
Everybody feeds the fat boy.
(both literally, and also metaphorically for other concepts that are not obesity, such as wealth, love, etc...)
Sometimes it is done with good intentions because the kid obviously looks like he loves to eat, so it must be what makes him happy, right?
