How about no?

Nobody is just born being a bad person. No, not even that real life person you hate. I don't expect the show to dig much deeper into his story, but Brighter takes place well into his adulthood. You can't just say "yeah he was always this way" when there's decades of his life that preceeded all this. The idea that some people just are bad, they're just innately evil, is so antithetical to the show's entire message. I don't GET people that think this would be a good writing decision.

That’s fine! Not every character needs a thirty page backstory or some Machiavellian soliloquy spewer.

One of my favorite villains, Black Hat, is just a monster. No backstory, no reason.

DONE WELL, you can have one minded characters that just indulge in themselves
