Sick to my stomach (lemmy.world)

I was chatting with with my bro today. I asked "how do you just - do that heinous shit?" I remarked that I could never do what they did to those people if i got rich and powerful.

He's like "you sure? How do you know you wouldn't?"

And the more i think about it, I'm not so sure. Are we all just monsters forced to be good by the status quo? Are we brainwashed to be good? Is being evil the best way to live and we're all just suckers?

I honestly feel sick thinking about the implications.

How can good ever win? What the hell can we do?

Sorry for the cringy rant but I'm pretty broke up about it.

I think it’s important to remember, as disgusting as these vermin are, this is a small fraction of the wealthy people in the world. and i don’t believe many of the names did anything evil after seeing the available evidence. they went to try to make a deal, get money, go to a party, maybe had sex with an of age woman or prostitute. some were probably guilty of understanding what was going on and staying silent which is petty bad as well. Ghislaine even dressed and told girls to claim they were over 18 . but the abuse and horrific shit was done by a relatively small group of sadistic psychopath trash. at least so far.

We keep track of the release of the files, but also to explore what’s already available, and why – with enough exposure – this could bring the man down, and who knows even his regime or the empire.
