And I think what it is, I think it has something to do with the unwillingness or inability of the more liberal types to have imagination for evil. Like, I would make the case that most criminals You could validly interpret most criminals whose criminal history is sporadic and short as victims.

It doesn't matter how egregious the crime. Now, that's something I would have tested as a social psychologist if I still had an active research lab, which I don't. But the problem with what we know that we know from simulations that networks of cooperators can establish themselves in a way that's mutually beneficial and productive.
