"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

They see themselves as peak of Civilization and justify their actions by saying that if they quit it would get worse, therefore they believe they must continue. Emphasis on the word believe. They believe that there's no point stopping what they're doing, if someone else is just going to do the same thing.

They set the world on fire, but keeping it burning keeps them safe, so they don't want to put out the fire, they find any justification necessary for that.

Arguing with them is really a futile effort, because if you ultimately take the argument to it's conclusion you're going to be called a Demagogue, a liar. It's a never ending cat and mouse game. A labyrinth of lies.
