@John Hummel Because we try to view it as external when it is in fact an internal force.

Ultimately that usually leads for its downfall, as well.

@John Hummel First limiting how much someone can possess is limiting the ability to concentrate capital enough for any significant projects such as nuclear reactors. Leave that up to the state you say? Well just look at how well the state has handled anything significant. What you suggest leads to death Bolshevik style. Equality of opportunity okay, but equality of outcome, no good.

"Good" and "evil" are a religious dualism not found very often in nature. We are all born to survive. Some methods of survival are pro-social and life-affirming, others are destructive and self-serving.

Many of us do have an ability to grow and recognise the value of pro-social behaviour. Some are raised to be anti-social. Some are born with something seriously wrong with their heads that cannot be reached by any amount of good training or persuasion.

Our culture is designed to breed narcissists. Capitalism has proven an exceptional tool for propping up systems of hierarchy. We are never allowed to feel good enough, and we are forever chasing after being special.

@Muse Right, I can't think of any famous communist leaders that weren't outright psychopaths.

Our culture seems to be the deep roots of narcissistic traits and capitalism aggressively cultivates just that and weeds out those who want better environment

In Buddhism there is no evil, just humans who are "unskillful".

@John Hummel I believe you need to consider: unskillful at what? For Buddhism that would be at maintaining thoughts and actions that avert suffering and bring greater contentment.

Um, this conversation is getting far afield. Maybe start your own thread?

@Brad Koehn ☑️ Probably shouldn't post on a public forum if you are uncomfortable with things going sideways because that is just the norm.
