    I stopped trying to be a good person, instead I’m trying to be a person I can be proud of. Whether the action prioritizes myself or the others does not matter if it makes me glad. A huge part of goodness is established on prioritizing other living beings which,I believe, forgets the most important one, the self.

    Ehh kinda gave up on good and evil. It’s better to say pro/anti social. Im learning to be more social.

    But I’d do more “good things” than most people but I’d still say I have a lot more that I can do, and I could be more proactive in general.

    It’s like you can think your a good person for picking up other people trash, but then realized that people dump carbon dioxide into the air and don’t do anything about it.

    The concept of “good” is subjective tbh. So no. I dont see myself as a “good” person, i’m just a person. We all struggle, we all fall short, not becaue we are “bad”, but because we are freaking humans.

    No such thing. We are all just people on a spectrum somewhere between good and evil. No such thing as pure good, and no such thing as pure evil.

    Even Hitler loved dogs.

    That being said, however, I can’t think of a single positive thing about Trump

    I’m somewhere between Lawful Evil and Chaotic Neutral, with an occasional moment of Neutral Good.

    Not really. Most of the things that I do are very neutral, and there are a few things that I do that are pretty awful, although of limited scope in harms. I’m mostly nice to people, I try to help where I can, but these aren’t really exemplary things, these are just part of living in a society.

    Not really

    I feel like I do good things just because they make people like me. Idk.

    I generally try to do more good than bad, and I try not to hurt anyone. But good people probably don’t hope that the US president and most of the billionaires stop breathing…

    I try my best. I lead life with empathy for all people and creatures. We’ve all only got one world after all.

    I don’t like hurting other people.

    Nowadays that qualifies as good.

    The bar is so low I don’t think I have trouble passing as one of the good ones.
