A musing response:
Every human being is, in reality, a complex, unique individual with the capacity to grow and change, often in profound ways.
Examples? Christian despising Pharisee Saul became St Paul. The Revolutionary War hero patriot General Arnold betrayed General Washington and today his name is a synonym for traitor.
As Trumps pointed out many times, you never really know who someone is, even yourself, until they're "tried by fire".
Additionally, Q pointed out that only a very few humans know what's really going on. At best, armchairs know 20% and readers were reminded that " disinformation is necessary". This is omething students of Sun Tzus "Art of War" have been told repeatedly and had confirmed as true countless times.
Consequently, I avoid serious, time consuming efforts, to determine whether someone is a "white hat" or "black hat". Aren't such efforts a modern version of debates during the Middle Ages about how many angels could dance on the head of a pin and a potentially Fatal Distraction?
The complex Real World =/= simple Marvel Movie World inhabited by good guys and villains
Long ago, a wise friend encouraged me to embrace the attitude expressed in the bible; "Only God is good". Accepting her advice freed me from endless speculations about others so I could instead focus on praying for everyone then concentrating on allowing God to work with me and through me with the least amount of "I-Know-Better" resistance. Please let "THY will (not mine) be done on earth as its done in heaven".
My decisions relevance to others? Unknowable. Each persons journey is unique. I wish each sojourner a bon voyage.
Fortunately, in many cases, sneks ie " black hats" can be far more useful than "white hats", especially to experienced snek handlers who are well aware of who they're dealing with; handlers like Q and Q+.
What are others really up? I don't know. I have enough trouble figuring out what I'm really up to and trying to ensure that I'm doing His will rather than mine.
Best wishes to all. : ).
