“If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

In the digital age, information is everything. And information usually precedes action, so in my eyes your argument is wilfully ignorant to the larger reality of a complex globalized world.

Fuck.

I wrote this before and then edited, without realizing that now my main argument has become for the opposite of what I intended it to be for. Now I can't edit it. Original post:

"Wow very selective mind you've got there. Please tell me this is a joke?

All of that is mere sophistry to justify their crimes. It is an addictive toxic meme like "neccessity" as it at best escalates from any actual neccessity to excusing mistakes to whatever is convenient to whatever they /think/ will help even if actively detrimental like torturing for information. This sort of delusion has a long history - often found as societies rail against "decadence" when it is really what they consider virtue which will be their inevitable downfall.

The secret is that information doesn't matter to the evil fools, it is all a pretext for self justification whether consciously or otherwise. In order for the delusional evil to die and stay dead the secret must be widely exposed.
