    I’ve heard the phrase, but that doesn’t make it true. Power attracts bad people and gives them the opportunity to be more bad. This doesn’t mean it turns good people bad.

      Then name one person who ever reached true power by being good and then remained good. Maybe you could even name one, but could you name three? Yet the list of people that would rather proove that point is easy to fill to the brim.

        Most people who are good don’t make the news, but unironically: MrBeast, Jesus, and Bernie Sanders

        Never thought I’d put any two of those people in the same category lmao
