Also, if it is so, it isn't really compelling to someone who likes Chara. It pushes everything in the direction that they are inherently bad, and whatever good you may find in them is Asriel's, who is already good beyond reason. Yet, he has to be even better than that, and if someone likes Chara, they have to like Asriel in them.

I don't want to idolize Chara or anything, they are flawed anyway, but I want to like them for who they truly are, or were, (whatever is the take on that), and not for what Asriel and Frisk makes them to be. We don't know enough of Chara's life before falling down to know for sure if he had previously felt compassion but regardless the kid had issues and while Asriel did introduce positivity back into his life. Chara is not inherently bad there is no such thing as inherently bad only genetically predisposed but we don't know Chara's parents so no. Chara is not even 'evil' per say just incredibly cynical towards humanity which consumed him and developed into mania.

Your also missing the point when going on about un-compelling as Asriel STATES Chara wasn't the best person (and neither was Asriel really) thus failing to rehabilitate Chara.
