Most of us are some blend of good and bad traits with a whole lot of "Meh" traits making up the bulk of who we are. Like me being neurodivergent and trans and liking TTRPGs. None of that is is good nor evil, they just are aspects of me.But I'm also kind of a jerk, sometimes. I can be petty. I do lie, sometimes. These are traits that in a world where good is all there is would not exist. But how to get them out?Well. Me being a jerk would mostly require therapy and probably medication to deal with anxiety and depression. Stopping me from being petty mostly just means I need to live in a wholly good society where there's nothing to be petty -about- because nothing sucks that I feel the need or desire to be petty over. And a society that is largely nonjudgemental would keep me from lying because pretty much all the lies I tell are ones that hide an aspect of myself I feel uncomfortable about or have received negative reinforcement of in the past. (Like DAVE related time management issues)But if I'd grown up in a society without bullies and that was nonjudgemental, how many, if any, of these traits would I even actually have? Just a thought.</blockquote>
