The state calls it's own violence the law, but that of the individual, crime.

Some things I’ve learned that were once supposedly common knowledge that I can’t find on the internet anymore: Herzl was an atheist, worked with Hitler, allegedly including the final solution, because it lent Zionism more support?

Has it been scrubbed because that’s true or because it isn’t? I honestly don’t know anymore. Maybe I misinterpreted what I was reading?

People use laws to outsource their responsibility to decide whether what they are doing is good.

It's common for people to refuse to be taken accountable for their actions, they will just refer to the law. Some go even further and believe everything is good, as long as there is no law against it. Or they blindly follow laws they should know are wrong.

It has become their "chariot of reason".

But what if my enemy does it first to me. It's cool then, right? (Sarcasm)

Yeah, most evil isn't supported and done by charicatural evil people out to hurt others for personal enjoyment, it's supported and done by people who believe themselves to be "good people" and who give themselves and others such excuses.
