Wait! You can see the evil in her eyes?

Where did you learn to do that?

I dont mean to be shitty. This woman has been found guilty of something absolutely heinous and deplorable, and she could easily be described as evil knowing that.

But you are saying that if you saw that picture out of context, that you could see evil in her eyes?

What if the headline was, woman falls in lake trying to film ducks. Would you be able to see the stupid in her eyes? Or would her fave still look evil?

I've seen streamers that play a game where you are given multiple mug shots, and you have to identify the criminal vs. the non criminal, and it's amazing how often they/everyone in chat gets it wrong.

Sorry to paragraph vomit on you here, but i just hate when i see people say this in these situations. It's just not true and a silly thing to say.

Downvote me if you want. I dont care. I just needed to vent.

Sorry.

Edit: agreed, making abortion illegal was absolutely bonkers.

I think seeing the evil in someone's eyes can be more attributed to knowing they've done something evil like this. The original commenter may not have been saying it literally, more-so after they find out the actions the person has taken. Not everything is so literal. Idk though, I'm not OP.
