    No, you can’t rape, torture, and murder without losing your own humanity. Humanizing monsters hurts the victims.

      They are not monsters though, they are very human. Doing horrible shit is as human as eating or shitting. I think most people here would do the same thing if they were raised in similar conditions. Most people don’t even see (much less care enough to do something about) the injustices going on in their own society.

        That’s ridiculous; there are millions of people raised in bad conditions who don’t do the same. Humans are inherently pro-social; original sin isn’t a thing. They are monsters.

          I’m not saying that it’s especially bad conditions, more like indoctrinating conditions. It’s not like germany had very bad conditions when they started ww2 either.

          But if you don’t think it’s a problem with the society and culture then the only real common denominator is ethnicity. Which kind of means that ought to be genocided when russia eventually falls.
