It does not mean they are hateful, you silly billy. It means they cannot observe the reasons for the hate.

That COULD be because they agree with it and do not want to admit, but you MUST understand how wishful thinking and ignorance to evil ABSOLUTELY produces the same result.

MLK Jr. was not calling everyone who sat on their butt evil. He called their inaction the banality of evil. It does NOT take an evil person to do a horrible thing. The fact you do not realize that means it is you who has a lot of growing to do.

Yes, inaction because of ignorance is bad. Though calling people evil because they're ignorant is utterly counterproductive and frankly, pathetically judgemental, too.
