Yes. Our elite are psychopaths. We knew that, but this is more evidence. The ones that don’t condone cheating aren’t exactly condemning it either.
There were two different noble factions beginning to reach for power in Athens after the overthrow of a tyrant. The weaker of the two devised Democracy as a subterfuge to allow his faction an artificial and hidden contrivance to stay in power.
The elites are an new aristocracy, they believe their wealth and power makes them supermen (in the Nazi way) above all normal standards of morality. They can do what they want, think what they want without having prove themselves right. Belief is reality. Think your a woman when you were born a man—that’s OK. Believe your ideas are right (as long as they make you feel good)—its OK. Feelings are facts. They are “Cruisen for a Brusen” in the future.
