Thugs, barbarians, brutality, crime are part of the mankind and can't be separate from it. Nor can a Garden of Eden be created on earth away from thugs, barbarians, and violent people.

You lack reading Hobbes (the man is his own wolf) and Rousseau (the good savage). You need to upgrade your culture to be much able to participate on this kind of discussion.

According to Hobbes man is intrinsically bad and only society can make him not end up destroying himself.

Rousseau disagreed. According to him man is intrinsically good. And it is society that makes him behave badly.

I dropped out school but spend a good deal of time and money getting my own education. I ended up better than the guys who went to university and learned teachers want them to know and not what was important.

Got some books. It will be good for you
