If you make fun of someone's physical trait that they have no control over, are you being a good person?
Not at that particular moment at least. I don't think that rises to the level of you are a bad person as a whole.
How bad do you have to be to be considered an all around bad person? How should we weight different kinds of bad (stealing candy from a kid, vs graffiti on an ol granny's shirt)? Is there an objective measure of badness and how to sum it?
Sure here is my 900 page dissertation on it.
No I don't think one shitty remark one time means you are irredeemably a bad person. Just because I can't tell you where the line is doesn't mean that there is no line.
