It saddens and frightens me, that so many people in the world are so open about how the only reason they don't commit violence is fear of consequences. I bummed out both by how many people like that there are, and how normal they feel uttering psychohorrors like that

Anyone who claims they could casually commit violence if they felt like it hasn't tried.

You really need to beat the natural empathy out of people from a young age before they're willing to do more than talk shit

It's actually truly not human nature to hurt another human, but because it is forbidden people don't understand themselves at all.

Remember, in all wars since the dawn of time, we have had to first train the shit out of every single soldier to not reflexively miss with their weapons over months using sleep and agency deprivation to remove that threshold.

Very few people have disorders that makes them capable of violence of that level
