Evil and Tribalism

People can’t accept that evil is what it is because their tribalism requires that they support it. The political class are evil, their agenda is evil and, since the agricultural revolution, they have established themselves as the tribal elite which most people are programmed by nature to support.

That creates cognitive dissonance in most people’s minds. They know, on an instinctive level, that the elites are doing wrong, but their tribal instincts require they support the elite agenda. This phenomenon can partially explain the rise in psychological pathologies we see arising in modern, especially urban society, considering the disconnection from natural reality inherent in urban life.

The replacement of the tribal meritocratic elite with the pathological elite (the “political class”) requires that the tribe support elite agendas that degrade social cohesion within the tribe. Even though tribesmen are at least subconsciously aware of that degradation, their hard-wired, instinctive impulse to support elite ideas and opinions directs them to support their own exploitation.

As long as this condition (pathological personalities as the tribal elite) persists, the productive class is doomed to be victimized by the political class.
