They think they are in a TV series and they are the hero uncovering an evil revolutionary.
Very, very few evil people ever think themselves to be evil. People, regardless of allegiance, will invariably form justifications in their own mind to assuage all guilt from themselves, and place it firmly on anyone who opposes them. Liars must lie to themselves first.
Alinsky dedicated his book to Lucifer. It doesn’t really matter whether or not evil believes it is evil.
I used to think this as well.
The response to covid and in particular the mandated jabs disabused me of that notion.
I saw people all around me who took glee in the fact that they got to impose idiotic, draconian rules on people. It was alarming how many receptionists became tin pot dictators over something as simple as mask protocol.
They still don't think they're evil though. The illustration is that nobody thinks they're evil because they have zero concept of abstract morality whatsoever. Bad is what good people say is bad and you know who's good because they don't say that bad things are good.
Its a house of cards based entirely on a few somatic feelings about maybe 2 ideas. That's it. People don't have principles and axiom thay they build their worldview out of. They start with a single feeling, and then based on how things interact with that single feeling they decide what things are evil. Its not new, it's troubling for sure, but once you internalize that realization most arguments get really boring really fast
Well, I'll definitely be happy when I get to impose justice on the criminals who've reigned over us for decades, justice that hasn't been properly given in a long time. Taking glee in an action doesn't necessarily make it bad or evil. The action itself determines if it's good or bad, if it aligns with truth or not.
They probably can’t imagine that they aren’t involved in some conspiracy. To people like that, they can’t believe it took one decade for the facade to fall apart, there must be someone pulling the strings.
