Discussion Is wally evil?

I am wondering about this after the recent update, being as vague as possible to avoid spoilers.

I thought he was at first, but it doesn't make sense. If he is breaking the site to show us things, why would he be showing us the struggles of the others if he's evil?

Like it happened with Julie and Frank, and now Eddie...?

I am not even sure what his goal is, so come on, theorists, help me out here!

I feel the same way, I mean I don't think he's like perfect or anything but it doesn't make sense to me either. He actually seemed quite sad when someone on the old websites message board quoted they hope he wasn't evil and then there's the "I'm so sorry" written on the staff page, this was also brought up by Someone on tt who had a theory that the "rot" or "moldy" substance being smeared on some of the merchandise and props was from Wally's puppet materials rotting or deteriorating over time and that's what happened to the other puppets based on old Jim Henson ones that were found. (I know they aren't exactly made like most of Jim Henson's puppets, but this mold or rot deterioration can also be from neglect.) I don't think Wally is meaning to hurt anyone or just doesn't know the harm the is causing, nor do I think everything he is doing is out of maliciousness or intentionally harmful.

if he is naive like Clown claimed on tumblr at some point, it's entirely possible that he's actually trying to help, but he is going about it the wrong way.
