There are people who go out of their way consistently to make people as unhappy as they possibly can. People that leave a trail of people behind them, hurt, traumatized, wondering what the fuck they did to deserve what they got.
I'm less distressed if they meet an early death than if that fate befell an average person.
Then there are people who constently go out of their way to help others, often partially at their own expense, out of a strong desire to do good, often in complete anonymity, without virtue signalling.
The wellbeing of these people, who elevate the species, concerns me more than that of the average person, whom I still value very much.
I guess its only natural.

I'm happy with all the opinions here but I don't really feel hate towards even people like john wayne gacy. People either do shit because fucked up shit happened to them or they were not born with empathy, which is really their loss when it comes to fulfillment. That doesn't stop me from wishing everybody who cuts through traffic meaninglessly to swerve into a big pile of shit.

I don't think that's controversial. I don't feel hatred towards people like John Wayne Gacy. I think that lack of hatred is consistent with the empathy for the victims and all the people who were impacted by the atrocities he committed, meaning it's reasonable to hold both of those positions at the same time.
