I say why not both,

it is ‘uniquely evil’, because of it both being extraordinary material product of ‘geography and circumstance’, which encourages it, and what the perpetrators decided to do with it (whom it encouraged)

Any human, let alone group, in my opinion can be as uniquely good or evil to one another, but when they are enabled by giving them the material tools they need to reshape the world in their favor, they can show themselves to be that force of good or bad.

If a system that encourages dispossession and destruction of past modes of production and livelihoods, to make efficient exploitation of people’s labor for Capital, creates a group of people who uphold such designs, especially at the expense of others

Then I tell you, while those people may be uniquely evil than the average person, at the end of it, they’re not more evil than what the system does.

No I cannot

Sometimes you just take it all in that this is your life, this is your surroundings, and this is where you’ll be for the foreseeable future, just before you get up, to work, eat, and sleep.

Edit: the idea of this came to me because I was pondering why people fight so hard to beat diseases and live a few more years. What are they planning to do? Why exert effort just to be here longer when you don’t have a reason?

Sometimes one just wanna go out on their own terms, and finish all their goals, and disease is just something that’s in the way.

A few more years is precious to those, I suppose.

Most of those that work forces, are the same who burn crosses

In the end, really, the tragedy of the commons hides a far messy reality of primitive accumulation; mass pre-capitalist (feudal or before) dispossession of many property, communal, church, if not state, in favor of monopolized accumulation in the portfolio of the burghers, the forerunners of capital, as we know them.

Case in point:

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. (13th amendment)

You need to purposefully step away from that sort of thing and actually engage with the culture to get the benefits of the quote.
