In life, evil is most often called everything that you simply don’t like.

Evil is that which is opposite to good, that which is contrary to human life, that which destroys it. In particular, this is the intentional infliction of harm, damage, suffering to their people.
Note — yours. Causing harm to strangers is usually not considered evil, it is called business or military cunning.
It is important to take into account intentions. If a person inflicted damage, harm to his and his loved ones unintentionally, by accident, they can scold him, but they won’t call it seriously evil. The sign of evil is willfulness, evil free will.
However, few people do such an analysis in life, and most often everything that is not clear, what causes fear, and often what they simply do not like is called evil.
Then both order and freedom can be attributed to evil. Jeans and money are evil. And beautiful girls are definitely a terrible evil, because they make us suffer, suffer, and still try to bewitch us with their charm!
The dialectic of good and evil
Everything in the world is intertwined and interconnected. The bad is often the necessary condition for the good, and the good the necessary condition for the bad.
The cat sneaks up to the bird, singing a wonderful morning song. Need to get rid of the cat? Only it is very possible that this bird may be a carrier of an infection, as a result of which half of the city will die out …
When wolves were destroyed in the forests, hares also began to die out. Wolves, it turns out, orderlies of the forest!
Moral: Don’t rush to judge. It is more useful to think than to swear and denounce.
On the other hand, with all the complexity of the assessments, one should not lose sight of references at all, and rather it is correct to proceed from the fact that alcohol, drugs and cigarettes are everyday evils.
Evil in the field of practical psychology
Manipulation. It is often thought that manipulation is evil. In general, one can agree with this, on closer examination it turns out not to be the case.
Evil is the unskilled work of psychologists, when it is not an accident, but the prevailing state of affairs.
What to do with evil?
In short and seriously, then, oddly enough, nothing. Nothing for you. Most likely, you are not the strongest and not very qualified person, and you simply cannot be allowed to fight evil. Start fighting — in your performance, the result will only get worse. Unskilled struggle with evil, no matter how bitter it sounds, in life only leads to an increase in evil. Do not fight evil, instead gain intelligence and strength. And at least in training mode, learn to do something of your own, beautiful and kind in the world. Learn to live in such a way that your slogan becomes: “Whatever I do, the amount of good in the world must increase!”. And when you become a smart, strong, skilled fighter, then we will join forces together and, at least a little, we will improve the world.
