Sorry, I disagree with you.

Sure, let's accept they are indoctrinated. Their indoctrination is basically saying them that hurting others is a good thing as long as they are not from "the good group". And they get "hooked" on that?

Sorry mate, but I am one of those that, if I lived in her country would probably get hurt sooner than her (I'm autistic). If I lived in her country, Sharif would have voted to hurt me and the people like me. And she openly said she "got immediately hooked" on the idea.

Fuck Sharif, vigorously. Because it's on you if you want to be a piece of shit that gets indoctrinated by a "theory" that says, basically, "we'll hurt everyone that's not a MAGA".

Their indoctrination is basically saying them that hurting others is a good thing as long as they are not from “the good group”.

They're raised to believe they are in a uniquely righteous and benevolent group, fighting a just war against tyrants.

And they have ever misfortune or injustice in their lives attributed to this evil outside force.

That might provide an explanation, but it's certainly not an excuse.
