compare the actions of the characters and then look at what their situation is at the books ending. alyosha is best off, he spent his time helping other people and was a content person in the end. katya, another person who repeatedly put in effort to help also gets away well. dmitri did damage to others but felt regret and generally had some redeemable qualities. hes likely to end up in jail at the books end but with the possibility of still avoiding it. ivan had bad traits to his character such as hatred and apathy that reinforced smerdyakovs conviction in following through with his murder. in the end he is ill with the likeliness of recovery being uncertain. smerdyakov was the person who sinned the most (=murder) and he had the worst fate out of all of them. lastly of course also the hedonistic and egomanic father who was killed early. i have a feeling the message dostoyevsky wants to transmit with this book is that bad things happen to those who fail to distance themselves from the malicious aspects of their person and true happiness can only be found when you commit yourself to helping out your people/ the community.

didnt mean it in an ethnic /nationalistic sense but just in the sense of people who you have an actua interpersonal relationship with: loved ones, family, dear neighbours, friends, you name it. what i didnt mean is abstract help through contributing to the economy or similar.

Smerdjakoff's suicide was a way to avoid the trial and implicate Dimitri. He would have been condemned if he had been alive. I would have smothered the little redditor in the crib. Frankly if I were Fyodor I would have simply not fucked Lizaveta.
