    Do you mean to say good until a time to show said goodness comes?

    What do you base that the average person is good?
    I would say the average person would kill another person for 100k monies (in case of no other consequences & ease, like press of a button).

    I’m not seeing much else unfortunately, just goodwashing stories of philanthropy & such.

    Eg Romans didn’t have issues pillaging & then subjugating entire provinces to the empire, kill any opposition to the pillaging or trade. Except for scales, such this aspect of “goodness” before and after.

    Do ppl really look at all the constant killing for power & think this has nothing to do with humanity, just a few bad apples?
