What would I have to do to make you see the world through my eyes?
Every person tries to be the best person they can be at all times with the resources (talents/intellect/personality/knowledge etc.) they have. Every human action has a reason behind it. Human beings also don't act good or bad for no reason. If you look at things from a bigger picture, you might start to pity "bad people" instead of getting angry at them, making yourselves more forgiving, understanding, and less hateful as a result.
Over 70% (according to some BS statistic, I don't know either) of human communication is non-verbal and dependent on body language and tone of voice, so your interpretation of someone else's intentions via communication entirely dependent on text and .jpegs has a massive chance of being utterly incorrect. I hope we can discuss this topic a lot more calmly from this point onward.
What is the reason for the negativity towards Lord Tony right here and now? Explain yourselves.
Bad people that I sympathize for would have to be like an anti-hero personality or someone that gives a reason for sympathy. For example, let's take the fictional character Walter White from AMC's Breaking Bad. This protagonist, while considerably questionable in his ethics and actions, you can sympathize with because he's on the brink of death and wants to find a way to support his struggling family. However, he takes a less than desirable route of making meth in order to acquire the cash. While this is illegal and considerably bad, do we sympathize with him? Yes. However, do we condone these actions? No, because they are illegal and have negative effects to him and others around him.
So lets turn back to Tony, is it possible to sympathize with him? Sure. But are his actions in any way, shape or form excusable by any means? No. Just because you can relate to or sympathize with a person does not mean you can condone their actions when they are negative.
And to continue on with your comments above, Tony is still instigating and stirring controversy. Again, different name, same bullstuff.
