Ok, Snow has some darkness, as evidenced by the spot on her heart. Regina and Rumple have TONS of darkness. I could continue with other characters, but the point is everyone has some amount of darkness. the darkness does NOT make them evil. And Darkness may not even necessarily be bad.

Hyde is dark, there is no doubt and no denying of that fact. His actions are rather dark and grim.

And I would even accept that a person's darkness can lead them to do things that are evil in nature.

but darkness is not evil.
