I hate how easily views are manipulated
Some time back, i was in a gore website where a kid had murdered his parents. One of the comments quoted schopenhauer saying, "Evil is what is positive. It makes it's existence known." I was quite troubled by this view of evil. Saying it is something "positive" would seem absurd to many people. With this quote and with how schopenhauer had already been presented, I avoided him. That was until one day I came across a post about him on YouTube. Turns out what I had thought of him was wrong and his philosophy then didn't quite seem so "absurd" but rather comforting to me. I was fascinated by it.
