they are psychopaths. abnormal and sick individuals.
they are psychotic, they have psychosis, they enjoy the pain of others, and hate the pleasure of others
their whole lives are dedicated to ruining as many other people's lives as possible, in the extreme ,that is called megalomania, in small, it is called narcissism, in between it is variously called psychopathic, sociopathic, and borderline personality disorder
these people run this world, and until someone shows up who can identify and exterminate them we are gonna continue to struggle and have to shrink to the corners to stay out of their way
but don't be stupid and think you can fight them head on
we can't
we don't have the technology yet
to higher technology knowing folks this is old hat, and i believe such folk are watching and seeing that they have reached a "ok enough" point, i think that we are actually past their peak, the counterbalance is now in its early stages
