Also, the people that are plotting evil and destroying people's lives might be doing that completely indirectly, which is not the same as actively seeking evil and actively destroying people's lives simply to destroy people's lives, but merely the consequences of their indifference.
And this is what I mean. You do not believe in evil, and are prevaricating around the bush as much as possible to avoid the subject.
Pizzagate is nothing.
What narcissist do, and have done, is destroy life. Some have actually made zombies. Yes, the person lives, but they are incapable of action on their own. EVIL.
A person who has a conscience can't do this. They have to be heavily propagandised (those evil nazis) and still they can't go as far.
And this is nothing, read some books on what narcissists have done to their children. Emotional abuse that almost everyone I talk to about it does their best to change the subject and continue to ignore the possibility that it exists.
I don't believe in evil? So exactly where did I say what I believe or which statement that I made expresses or implies that notion?
A person with conscience can still do evil, as you argued, albeit unintended or even tricked or coerced or threatened into it, a person can be compromised in numerous ways, and a person without conscience is a fiction, every person has varying degrees of evil and indifference and varying degrees of altruism, empathy and compassion, and their inner self can be both evil and good and their actions being justified by their inner self is inconsequential either way.
Here is the definition of conscience, it has nothing to do with altruism, empathy or compassion, but all with the inner guide or feeling which I don't see how you can exclude that from what constitutes being a person.
You just argued that they cannot do that and turned around and declared that they simply can't go as far.
What's your argument here? That people are capable of some evil acts?
We can agree on that, but I said that, and I repeat:
Why are they ignoring the possibility that it exist simply because they don't engage the discussion in that direction, have they expressed that outright to you, because I doubt that very much otherwise you would have not implied it and instead said, simply, that they don't believe that it's possible, that it doesn't exist.
So clearly there is nothing expressively evil about that but you went from acts to stereotypes. The stereotype fallacy because narcissists can do evil, but clearly even people with good intentions and who are altruistic and motivated by compassion and empathy are susceptible to being indifferent, which in certain situations is evil.
