I’m still used to thinking that evil people are mostly caused by material factors and their environment, but with all the stuff I’ve been seeing recently, I’m slowly becoming more and more open to the idea that “sometimes evil is just evil”.

In order to understand properly, I think we need to look at where and why colonialism originated and then proliferated. Not something I know enough about, admittedly. I more so know it’s a thing and that it has done unfathomable amounts of harm, less so why. But in the scientific socialist view, there should be material conditions that helped set the stage for colonialism to develop.
