I used to believe that the people in power were just ignorant or wrong. Now I believe they just do not care. They are not interesting in logic, reason, and principles. The only care about gaining and keeping power. I witnessed this during Covid when the elites didn't even try to hide their hypocrisy. Its not that they are just wrong. Its that they don't even care.
A entity with a monopoly on violence loses its intrinsic control mechanism, and any motivation to follow logic or morality.
