It must be nice to have so much money and freedom from consequences that that's the kind of thing that bothers you.

Or such little money and brain cells that that's the thing that inspires you to go out and vote against your own interests

I’m absolutely convinced that there’s a certain threshold of money/power/privilege that just destroys a person’s humanity.

Nah, you've got it backwards. You don't pursue that level of money/power/privilege unless you lack humanity. These guys were always shit, but power made them more effective at being shit.
