I feel you. Reminds me circa 2019 I was telling my (ex-) bf about these things and he just listened to me with a blank stare and said nothing. Of course not much was ever really in his brain anyway but those 6 years with him were eye-opening for me because that’s when I learned about people who have undeveloped prefrontal cortexes in their brain and I’m certain that’s what his glitch was. Sociopathic, no compassion, everything they do is for their own selfish gratification and they feel no remorse for manipulating & hurting others. They don’t do it on purpose, their brains are just missing the empathy parts.

It’s terrifying because those are the types of people who end up in positions of authority because business structure & capitalism exploit everything a human can produce, exploiting us with no empathy. Businesses & capitalism are run by sociopaths & psychopaths because to them, money is more important than people. As long as the people on top end up with all the money. That’s how the brains of people with undeveloped prefrontal cortexes are wired.

And these same types of people are the ones ritualistically abusing murdering & consuming children. My (ex-)bf probably hopefully never knew about such things before, at least he never alluded anything about it to me, but I’m certain if he had the opportunity he would join such groups. Because psychopathy/sociopathy, interest in religion & people but not the healthy aspects of religion & people, the power & structure & rituals & fellowship of religion. And the bonding opportunities & exploitability of humans. Devoid of feelings & compassion. Seeking only power & personal satisfaction & gain everywhere they go, in everything they do, from everyone they encounter.
