Why are some people so horrible?

I saw in my city news letter today that a man had been jailed after torturing his dog.

Like why? What the hell would possess someone to do that?

A few years ago my sister was injured in a terrorist attack when she went to see that Ariana Grande concert.

I don't know why people are so evil. Whenever I see the news it's always depressing. I'm sure there's more good people in the world than bad but it's easy to forget that.

  • For most people they have something which makes them feel displeasure when others are hurt. If that isn't there then you get people who torture animals or become serial killers etc.

    In other cases it can just be anger making people behave irrationally, or the dehumanisation of others (particularly effective with terrorists and those committing genocide - if your opponents aren't people but vermin then it's easier to not care and think they deserve it).
