Cats are evil because they kill for fun

It's their nature. I don't think projecting human morals on different creatures works. Not for cats, not for demons. To be clear, that doesn't mean I think they're 'good guys'. They just are.

Wasn't clear, but ok

Yeah fair, I can see how it's not clear. My bad

Actually its not their nature. Most wild cats don't kill for fun, nither do wolfs. We humans literally teached them to do that. Wild dogs and house cats do kill for fun and its not "their nature"

Humans kill each other for fun and we call it evil, its our nature to do that!

This argument makes little to no sense. The Frieren Demons are best compared to Nazis that killed out of a superiority complex. Nazis are evil, so are the Demons.
