You think empathy, joy, fulfillment, compassion and altruism is what made this life advance so much in the last 4 thousand years?! Think again.
The pyramids in egypt, all of them, were a vanity project, driven by a megalomaniacal breed of sociopathical pharaos who refused to die and be forgotten.
Now its the last standing, most marvelous piece of architecture from the ancient world still standing.
This is just an example. All the important leaders in history had a sour tinge to them. Its what made them human.
Alexander the great, its been said, once murdered a friend out of pure malicious rage.
Genghis khan was one of the most vicious, horrible, genocidal maniacs in history, and now 8% of men out of 16 populations in asia have his genes.
Vasco da Gama, a conquistador from portugal, once arrived in calcutá (indian city) in 1498 carrying a bunch of exotic shit in a bunch of baskets, to give to the ruler of the city.
He and his court refused. Vasco, then, went to nearest beach, CHOPPED SOME FUCKING HEADS OFF, and put them in the same baskets, then gave it to the ruler again.
He is, now, the name of one of biggest clubs in brazil.
The point im trying to make is a pretty simple one. Morality is not only "subjective", it should not even be palpably considered.
If you are rich, powerful, famous and connected enough, you can do whatever the hell you feel like doing, LITERALLY AND POINT BLANK PERIOD.
IT WAS ALWAYS LIKE THIS AND WILL ALWAYS BE.
