Evil vs Good

My dearest Tenebrus,
Allow me to commend you for your accuracy. The obvious display that
those who claim to be Good far more enjoy verbally attacking those who
would come up to publicly defend their ideals, rather than their sworn
enemy, is simply more proof of why Mhaldor is winning in its current
endeavor. I make no false allusions as to otherwise, I assure you. How
can it be otherwise when those on the side of Good so blatantly show
they would rather spend time pointing out past transgressions against
those who still hold to good morals and value life, attempting to
belittle them even if they should attempt to uphold all that they
themselves should be. As this world so often proves, the past is more
powerful than the present.
Though my "opinion" is subject to bias and I'm sure many people, of most
likely whom are supposedly my comrades, will gladly make mock and jest
of me; their words hold little punch. I know who's hand holds the sword
and whom my enemy is. Therefore I address you.
Unity through fear and oppression. Purging weakness through the
application of cruelty. The single-minded belief that only the strong
have the right to live, and that those who can not become strong must
perish. Those are the most base things I have heard of Mhaldor, from
Mhaldorians, my whole life. It leads to the torture of children. The
rape of women. The death of good men. All for the single driving force
of a thing that is purely subjective strength. What one finds strong,
another finds weak. And vice-versa. What is strength to Mhaldor? I
suppose I can relatively a million answers but it will all boil down to
at least one common substance- Mhaldor is strong. Evil is strong.
Correct? So then what truly happens to everyone else? No no, forget
Shallam. What happens to Eleusis? Will you leave them alone to follow
their own beliefs, ideals, and values? Will you respect their own
strengths? What happens to Hashan (it exists, really) and it's own
values, ideals, strengths? Cyrene? Let's go further. Moghedu. Tasur'ke.
Thera. The list goes on. You say in your post it's only those who wish
the "dissemination" of Evil ideals. But how many people in a day do you
rob, slaughter and hurt who don't even know who you are? All in the
advancement of strength. Subjective strength. I, myself, don't
particularly find it very strong to disassemble a small child with my
swords, and the fact that you can chose a stronger target doesn't
particularly alter my opinion; I'm still quite frankly reminded of
schoolyard bullies.
To summarize the point of my post; you're being right one time does not
make us wrong always. There is unification in good, and plenty or people
who remember what to fight for. Not for ourselves or the clique groups
we might create, not solely for the Good people, accepted solely by our
own false, made-up definitions. We don't fight for ourselves.
We oppose you because you're a threat to everyone. We fight for
everyone. That is Good. Acceptance. I don't care if it's some woman, or
man, that is deemed neutral by the cliques or weak by you. If she, or
he, has done nothing to harm someone, than we shall defend her, or him,
from that someone should they choose to harm her, or him- for their own,
selfish reasons.
