One thing I learned years ago, it is a big mistake to think about these people in terms of "if I were them", because they are not like you. Many of them are physically incapable of empathy, and many enjoy creating suffering for others. They only qualify as human on the most technical physical levels. Monsters are real, they just hide in board rooms, parliament, and in Hollywood among other places in stead of under your bed.
Dead on!
Further, it is worse than pointless to try to shame them.
These people know full well who and what they are and they are proud of it! They consider themselves superior to normies BECAUSE they have these characteristics.
Having some 'cattle' destined for milking or hamburger deride you for keeping them in a strong enough enclosure to keep them from escaping is hardly a grounds for 'shame'. What it is is confirmation in their minds that they have the superiority which they imagine.
That is a perfect way to put it, they just see us as livestock to exploit every last drop they can from us. They are incapable of showing real kidness towards us and the scary thing is that these types of people are always the ones that hold positions of power.
