Reflection 10

Villains are so interesting to us because they are bad. They make us fear that tipping point, because at some point or another Villain is good, something along the course of their life drastically changes them, and causes them to become evil. I believe that as a society we are attracted to their evil, because it keeps us on our toes, it cause us to ask ourselves, “ what’s my tipping point?” it makes us scared yet excited that any moment of any day a small event could cause us to become that evil person. Take my favorite villain Lord Voldemort he is so evil that he wants to wipe out an entire population just because their blood isn’t pure. Now yes that is evil and when reading the books I makes you against him, but before Voldemort was evil he was Tom Riddle an intelligent and very powerful wizard. At the end of the series there is a scene between Voldemort and Harry where Harry is accused of being just like voldemort, - in that instance as a reader you see the line to be there the line that keeps it distinct the thing that attracts us to villains because this moment you’re on the edge of the seat franticly wondering if harry is truly capable of being evil?- It’s not until Harry answers the question that you know he is good, that is the only difference is love Harry has and can love and voldemort has lost this power. That’s something that has happened to all villains they have lost the ability to love. That what makes them evil, and because for us as a society Love is so important the mere absence of it could cause us to become Evil.
