People seem to think they're just raving, vicious, lying, hateful monsters whose desires don't extend beyond raping, murdering and dragging us all into negative space.
I'd imagine they have personalities and preferences just like us, just a different goal to work toward. They are our brothers and sisters, not Disney villians who give us something to "boo" at. - liked by Monkey, bring4th aaron, kyachi and Ankh

How can I ask about this without sounding like I am accusing someone of being STS? This statement which was liked by four, leads me to a certain impression based upon what was said. Now I know what Aktu has stated here, but cannot be certain what the 'likers' actually liked it for, so I can't really extend my impression that far. So I ask in an effort to understand their thinking, does this statement mean that Aktu does 'not' believe that there are villains in the world who tend toward service to self? And is that what the four are in agreement with?
Is it okay to ask this question in this way? I know how I percieve the statement, but without asking I cannot draw conclusion.
