sadly, the bulk of human nature lies within the tendency to want to be led
aggravatingly, this portion of humanity isn't justhappy being led, they want everyone else to be the same happy little herd creature that they are
this goes beyond the psychopaths at the top, to a very substantial part of humanity
on the extremely cynical side, it would be very easy to lynch the corruptocrats every time they got out of hand, if it weren't for the hand-wringers and do-gooders getting in the way
Yup, following is easy and comfortable, keep the false "unity". Yes, too many false notions of good and evil exist in society for how to clean up the guck.
good and evil are tribal terms, that usually boil down to what is good for the tribe
some of these values are common b/c they universally work for any given tribe
All I really know is that for my tribe (Americans of a Jacksonian ideology, see here for my usually longwinded blowhardism re the subject), the @justinccps of the world are an enemy to be dealt with...people that announce a hostile intnent and then act on it
