Demanding self-sacrifice from everyone could be seen as evil
All of your examples do not make a thing bad. It just means that evil is out there and anything can be used for evil. But just because a rock has the potential to knock someone's head in doesn't mean that it is evil.
you are now extinct.....be careful what you wish for baalzeboop
Pretty sure Baalz never existed in the first place, but oh well
Roar I’m a dragon!
*Stomps on city*
Bad choice
*Slays with ease*
Don't make an enemy of me Kobold. Being a Dragon and stomping on City's makes you evil, and I do not hesitate to slay evil dragons.
Hmmm… I’m a philosopher!
”define evil”
Mean things
“But what makes something mean?”
Death. Killing. Hurt. Suffering. Greed.
And before you say anything, you say you're a philosopher, so you should know the meanings of all those things
“But we as a society have we chosen that those things are mean? We could see them as good, but we don’t…”
Pain. one way or another, all those things lead to someone's pain. I, as a Dragon slayer, am here to stop one to save the pain of the many. Are you trying to find fault with my cause?

You have a fair point.
Evil = all people

You guys are awesome and mean so much to me. And mean so much to each other.

Nobody helps people because it is the right thing to do. That is only the delusion that they tell themselves. They help others because it is convenient and fun. As soon as it is not convenient or fun, they would not help'

'That is perhaps true. But 'good deeds' are too often little more than ego boosters. Considering the vast amount of harm each person inflicts on the world, a 'good deed' is the equivalent of kicking someone out of their house, taking everything they have, and then tossing them a cent and patting yourself on the back'

I don't believe that.
Do you?
A man and woman left their home to live in a jungle to help the people there. They couldn't speak their language, and they were isolated from everything they had ever known. The people they wanted to help killed the man. The woman forgave them and did not give up. She continued to help them. It was far from convenient.
A man won the Olympics and became super popular. He could have had money and fame and fun. It would have been convenient. Instead he left his country and went to live in a foreign land where he was hated and imprisoned. He died there. He went there to help the people who hated him.
This is stupid. All of us here have a sense of right and wrong. We may not always follow it, but we know it's there. I personally do my best to help people especially when it isn't fun or easy, because I want to be a good person. If you only help others when it is convenient, then you may be doing good for them, but in your heart you haven't really done anything.

I help not because I want to be a good person, I know I can't be. I help because I love someone and it pleases them to see me help others.
If you help with a reluctant heart then what you have done is not good.

'Yes. Because why do we help people? Because it makes us feel good about ourselves. It is no morally better than eating sweets'

“But what if we help people because it is the right thing to do? Is that evil?”

But what if you help someone not because you want to feel good about yourself, but because you want to make another person feel good?

Oh yes. Most people are evil. Everyone is actually.
Maybe I'm just assuming everyone is as evil as I am then
