    Morally I guess so. But I would do the same.

    German word for this is Schadenfreunde.

    Translated this mean damagehappiness.

    No. But that doesn’t mean it’s healthy.

    I think there is a line in being genuinely happy for the misfortunes of those that deserve them, and seeking to hurt others.

    I can’t control my emotions, but I can control my actions.

    Depends on the context ? If this is some of a karma thing, no ?
    But if the misfortune is unbalanced with what they done, yeah.
    Like even if someone stole me a pen, I wouldn’t smile if their mom dies.

    But just don’t focus too much on that

    No, not at all.

    I have been personally wronged by people before for petty reasons. One person nearly ruined my life out of spite.

    I am not the type to seek revenge, but I will savor each and every misfortune that befalls them from here on out. I will not piss on their grave when they are gone, but I certainly will point someone else who’s looking to do so in the right direction.
