    Then that "non-corrupt side" is corrupt, therefore it's only the corrupt who do this; is ignorance bliss and an acceptable excuse and make you less responsible, how far along the chain of trust is enough? Someone's moral compass is inherent to the equation - their path dictated by their ability to understand/be compassionate, and level of non-violent practice they hold themselves to; if they lead with bad acting and violence as "a means to the end" then I'd argue they're less intelligent - whether through emotional blocks from unhealed trauma early in life that put their ego mind up on guard and started layering coping mechanisms that blocked ability for compassion, and/or inherently on their genetics, brain structure, has prevented this. This is all a holistic fight against violence and aggression, which through intelligence, the battle has become more and more and more subtle as a means of violence sustaining itself; we quickly put someone in confinement if they're physically aggressive and attack someone in our society, however manipulation and the such is perhaps the least aggressive - and so doesn't cause a reaction until it's perhaps too late, when the network of bad actors is large enough - and where they as a whole eventually realize they are or can get away with more and more.
