VILIFYING THE VICTIMS

As old as warfare, in other words two minutes after man started using tools, the enemy was always the villain.  And the enemy was always dastardly, villainous, sub-human and impaled babies on sticks ( or bayonets, if they happened to be the Hun, evil Germans intent on depriving the other western powers of full spectrum dominance ).  You need to make the enemy so bad that your warriors feel no remorse in dispatching them.  This might seem like a crappy scheme governments employ to “trick” their soldiers, but it is merely mirroring what each individual does.  When you have someone that has something you want, you trick yourself into believing they are so evil they deserve to be deprived of the desired trinket.  If you are stealing from work, it is because “your boss is a giant dick” or the “corporation is employing slave labor overseas”.  If you cheat on your wife it is because “she is the worst bitch ever”.  If you screw over the ex in a divorce it is because “they deserve it”.  I call it Vilifying The Victim.   If they are bad, you are justified in getting revenge, so you aren’t doing anything wrong.  You are still a good person.  If you understand this is how peoples minds work, you won’t be taken by surprise in the future.  Because they are not screwing you, they are still Gods chosen ones.  If you think most people are good, it is because you are buying your own justifications.

When resources are scarce, others will try to steal yours.  Period.  End of story.  Guaranteed.  They don’t think they are stealing, of course.  They are decent, good, God fearing people.  But you did something wrong to earn their wrath and revenge.  Christian Militia types are looking at the world like no one wishes them harm, as all are of stout religious material.  Which is true.  In each persons mind, they are perfect.  How can anyone hate me?  And how can anyone do me wrong?  But don’t you see that we are programmed to steal with self justification?  It is a survival trait.  There are never enough resources.  Ever ( except for two hundred years with coal and petroleum, and even then we NEVER stopped acting as if there was not enough to go around, and continued to fight and kill for the surplus.  It is the only reason the last two world empires had so much wealth [ and to see how much, just look at how poor Britain is now after we took all her surplus-and we are one day too many from being the next England ] was because they cashed in on dinosaur juice as their exclusive prize ).  So two tribes battle for the resources.  There is one and a half villages worth of food, and two villages fight for it until one is left standing, and the victor has a surplus of half.  Next article, vilifying the victims: Southerners, Survivalists, males and the poor.
