    Especially within the last two weeks with the thousands of comments I’ve already seen if people actively celebrating the death of two innocent people.

    It’s horrifying to know that we are surrounded by this many sociopaths

      Reminder that a lot of those comments are from trolls farms and/or bots

      Yes there are evils peoples around

      Yes evil is real

      So is social engineering

      The rich do not only pay for the ballroom

        And plenty of them are from heartless people who celebrate in the suffering of others. I have a few of them in my (formerly) close family.

        Bots aren’t self-creating, yet. People make them and design them to act as surrogates for their opinions. Imo this is evidence of an even more evil person. It’s not enough to spew a hateful comment for them. They need a private factory of misery.

      It’s not sociopathy. It’s in/out group thinking with a dehumanization effort put into the outgroup. That, coupled with cult-like social programming (“I’ve burnt bridges with all of the people who think that this is wrong, if I tell the others in the group I think this is wrong, I’ll have no one left”) and you’ve got the mixture. People who belong to MAGA will align their thinking with what the party says because they don’t want to be kicked out and become one of “them”.

      And those same rat bastard fucks were getting pissy that people celebrated Kirk’s death. They are all hypocrites and I will never take them at face value again.
