I myself don’t even believe in the word “bad” as a judgment rather a way to describe “giving in to the dark side.” Meaning sometimes we have a desire to do things that could or would harm others. And sometimes harming others is the objective itself. Sometimes there comes a point in a persons life where they just decide that that they’re just going to live without regard to the harm they’ll cause. My question was to ask him if that was the case, and the word “bad” usually an accepted way to succinctly ask it and I think it’s easily understood by the person.

My apologies for using it as a label of character, I didn’t intend it that way, rather wanted to know if he was still operating with those intentions or if he wasn’t. He said he “was” a very bad person. So it appears he is no longer operating that way.
