I think most everyone who actively hurts others have "Motivated Reasoned" up a story about how they deserve it, and this is a noble just action that improves the world.
- moate 5y agoI (as well as most social psychologists) agree with you. Everyone's the hero of their own story. You bomb an abortion clinic to "save the children" and you bomb parliament because "the politicians are all corrupt" and you bomb another country because "they would do it to you if given the chance". True APD (anti-social personality disorder) and Narcissism (the 2 disorders where the sufferer is most likely to be "bad for the sake of being bad") relatively rare. Most people have something resembling a reason for why they hurt others.
