    I think people who think that you can reach magas in any meaningful way suffer from the incorrect belief that people are fundamentally good and decent. We are not, as a species, altruistic or decent to one another. Look at all of recorded history. The evidence is quite the contrary. These folks are viciously clamoring to create pain and suffering. They relish in it, and it brings them immense joy. These people are the roving mobs committing massacres during Europes plagues.

      I don’t even need to look at history. There’s always some asshole doing some asshole shit on the streets, in the stores, at the movie theater, in the comments sections, in executive boardrooms, in patrol cars, in churches, in schools. People everywhere dead-set on having it their way so fuck everyone else.
