Not quite. See, all of Salem’s followers gave something in common: they have a desire for something. For Cinder, that is to be powerful and feared. Salem offered Cinder the tools to make Cinder’s desires a reality, but those desires were already there. While Salem might have made things at worse at best, Cinder was ultimately never a good person even prior to meeting here. Salem trained and empowered the monster that is Cinder, but she didn’t create her.
