Debbie Downer alert for the paragraph that follows, sorry.

It's a nice thought, until you think about any longer than three seconds. Trees in a forest don't try to scam your grandmother or hack into your online bank accounts. They don't take away your reproductive rights or prevent you from marrying the person you love. They don't vote to allow the people who wish to shoot up your child's school to have unfettered access to firearms. They don't poison your drinking water and pollute your air just to increase their profit margin. They don't molest your children and hide behind the cloth. They don't dismantle democracy and try to hide behind pardons and immunity. So while yes, maybe there are some superficial "you're toos" we could dispense with by turning people into trees in our minds, I just can't appreciate all those humans that are rotten to the core just the way they are...
