I interviewed a Syrian refugee a few years ago who told me that he was tortured by the secret service for no discernible reason. He said they beat him up without ever asking anything of him. They wanted to punish & he happened to be the closest facsimile of their enemy around.

I've been obsessed with this idea of punishment ever since: the need for some who feel they were hurt or offended to punish everybody and anybody. I see the MAGA crowd as simply wanting to punish. It matters little whether they get hurt in the process as well.
