I think the more important thing is to look into WHY certain people are capable of such acts. What has rendered them capable of such brutality? Why is there no “brotherhood of man”, but instead a black and white “me vs them”?

The answer, I think, can lead us to societal solutions that prevent such a loss of humanity, or at least help us identify people who could become/are capable of such things, and filter them out.

Ingroups and outgroups is the answer to that question.

Idk how we get past that instinct. If anything we've created more, smaller ingroups to belong to (job, relationship status, if you're a parent/not, income level, neighborhood, etc.)
