True.
And yet again, this "smashing others down" reduces to "taking things away from others."
Rights, liberties, financial wealth, career prospects, and ultimately life itself.
It always comes down to that one thing.
However, it doesn't raise them up, and they *know* it. I think that's one reason they're never actually happy - I'm discounting transient moments of joy from "victory" over others, or from looking down at those beneath them.
The only time it even gains them anything is when it's material wealth that they're taking.
