Such individuals are not assigned to the hottest places in hell. (see below), just "hot as hell", which should suffice.

Problem is, karma, judgment, reckoning, all happen on time scales too long to stop damage and suffering, so that's why we fight.

Damn Quislings.

Dante’s poem does include a section describing the fate of individuals who were neutral between good and evil. Their experiences were gruesome, but they were not placed in a location that was scorching hot.

Dante placed Satan at the lowest part of Hell which was at the center of the Earth, but that location was also not hot. Instead, Satan was trapped with ice around his waist.
