That leads you nowhere.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

The former most definitely are reasons. I'm lonely for a reason, and it's not because I want to be.

I too am lonely and don't want to be. By that logic I too am shitty.

Aye, says me. It's the same effects as being bullied, just except you're inflicting it on yourself. That will get you absolutely nowhere except more misery.
