It absolutely is something that they think helps their people, yes.

Beliefs stop when they are no longer about yourself but about how other people should live. Especially when those other people loudly protest that this is how you think they should be living. Killing them is just murder, not the spreading of ideas.

But hey, those human rights are just for decoration anyway.

I don’t understand why you said “no” before this; I believe this agreed with what I’m saying.

The 'traditional order of society' is a society run by psycho pathological individuals and benefits nobody except for those individuals.

1. Not everybody shares your values.

2. People who don't share your values are not necessarily brainwashed.

3. People may do things that are irrational under your system of values, but rational under their own.

And BTW, there is no a single fighting force in the world that doesn't have old men persuading young men to sign up and risk throwing away their lives. There's not a whole lot of difference between regular soldiers persuaded to participate in a forlorn hope or banzai charge attacking a defended position and a suicide bomber or kamikaze.

I think it clearly is.
