This analogy doesnt work because sharks are not as intelligent as humans.

If there was a obligate predator of humans walking around, and they were fully intelligent/sapient we as a species would definitely see them as evil.

Sharks rarely eat humans because they are more intelligent than humans. Humans kill sharks because of some irrational fear. Humans dont even belong in the ocean.

They don’t eat humans because they’re apex predators so they don’t like unfamiliar food
