doing a few good things doesn't automatically make you a good person. a neutral person can do good things. an evil person can do good things.

to qualify for good alignment you have to have the opposition to evil as one of your defining traits. something most people don't recognize or have the conviction for.


I don't like the opposition talking point, but sure.

Are you opposed to racial injustice? Do you think the Holocaust was bad? Do you think people in poverty deserve to be able to eat?

These are all bad things. I'd take it most of the people who recognize them as bad are against them as well.

Wanting to do good without actually doing it is relatively meaningless, at best it's a slight positive. You don't need to do big things, even small things are important, but you need to do it. Same thing with people with evil thoughts that don't act upon them.


Then you are a sad person because that sounds way less limiting and sounds like how I would classify most people.
