So are you not accusing me of what your life revolves around? That being glorifying an aspect of evil you find appealing? Which would be glorifying evil.

The easy answer for me here would be just to take the opening and say "You are wrong." I think I can go a little farther...
Even those who wish to glorify what other people call "evil" do not, themselves, advocate that which they feel is evil. "Evil", if it is relative, means "the stuff I think people shouldn't do".
It just doesn't make sense to say "I should do what I shouldn't do."
Of course, if Evil isn't relative like that, then it is absolute. In that case, we each have our own opinion but only some of us are right. In that case, when we say evil, we mean "the thing I am guessing is actually absolutely evil".
