Man, if that cabal/cannibal/pedo list (was here in one of the posts, cannot find it now, not sure even I want to atm), with all of those pop culture icons, prominent figures, proves to be true... I have some serious thinking to do, re-evaluate my movie and music collection... FFS some of those things shaped my personality growing up, the way I interact with people, some character traits that I am pretty proud of... Seriously, Tom Hanks... WTF?! And stupid fucking Friends show brought smile on my face through some pretty lost moments in my life. It's stupid, I know, but it would be completely dishonest to claim that pop culture did not affect us in significant way, at all... Something is seriously rotten in human nature.... Sorry for this rant, had to get it out...

Yes there's something "bad" about human nature, and that something is the "nature" part of it, it must be mastered, that's one of the main reasons of our sojourn in this place I believe, trying to master it, it's naturally "bad" for a reason.
Honestly it's just the animal in us, if you think about it, animals have no problem in mating or eating their young... it happens all the time, in many different species, and when we see it happen over there we just chalk it up as "oh well, they're animals", it takes human consciousness to lift us up away from that, the problem with that is that it's a double edged sword, it can either help you master that nature, or end up supercharging it.
This sort of thing happens when there's very little mastering involved... and of course the fact that you have so many engaged in this in the same group is simply because said corrupted group only takes that sort of people, it should not be used to measure the state of mankind.
The conflict you're experiencing is the same all will experience if it's true and if it all comes to light, but conflict is a good thing, it's the only thing that causes growth.
This I came to realise is true. This idea needs to be encouraged in people more. We grow out of pain, we grow out of adversity... The moment I recognised a demon inside me, is the moment I decided to pay attention to what I'm saying or doing... Still, I get speechless, when I see how deep and how far that nature can go...
