    I’m not convinced that people, yes even the bad ones, wake up, get out of bed, and think to themselves “let’s do evil today”. Rather, I think people tell themselves lies about how their actions are morally justified for some greater good, or at least remain willfully ignorant (i.e. psychopaths), or just complicit in a rotten system (passive bystanders).
