This Is What Happens When Cruel People Pretend to Be Good

Our world is sometimes cruel. In most cases - thanks to the cruel and treacherous people who pretend to be good.

These people hurt and attack others using emotional blackmail based on aggression, fear, and guilt. On the outside, they look friendly, but hidden motives and deep disappointments are hidden under this lying mask.

They attribute their behavior to the fact that absolutely all people are evil, and at one point they suffered greatly. And what if they hurt you, then all you have to do is hurt others.

However, although there is a certain logic in these words, there is another aspect that many miss. Namely: sometimes, cruel people do not behave like this because of traumas and disappointments, but they were born with a biological predisposition to such a model of "survival".

Scientist and writer Marcelino Chereigidio are sure that there are no bad genes, but there are certain biological and cultural circumstances that can contribute to this "bad behavior." The difficulty is that we tend to immediately attribute this evil gene to everyone on the right and left. That is, we act simultaneously as judges and "psychiatrists."

Evil acts are not necessarily caused by certain psychological or mental disorders. We've all met people who are healthy. They are attentive, polite, socially successful, scattered in compliments. But as soon as you meet them in private - the blood freezes with their cruelty. Their hearts are pounding, which is a haven for indifference, evil, and aggression.

How to protect yourself from hidden cruelty

The cruelty around us is enough. We become victims of false kindness, hidden aggression, manipulation, abuse, humiliation, and so on.

Why do people show cruelty? Why take the side of evil? This behavior can be caused by several reasons. Maybe the person is simply lacking in emotional intelligence, has grown up in an unemployed environment, or, in the end, is facing an oxytocin deficiency.

All of these factors can lead to covert aggression. It is important to remember that aggression is not necessarily physical violence. A person's word can not only hurt but even commit suicide. That is why cruelty is so dangerous.

How to recognize and get rid of cruel people

None of us want to be on the list of the victims of bad and cruel people. But no matter how old we are, no matter how social status they are, no matter how experienced they are, no one is immune to cruelty. Here, too, it is important to recognize its manifestations over time to stop communication with this type.

Let's start with the fact that a person who has his soul in the dark can have… charm. He knows how to speak nicely and to get drunk with compliments, to offer flowers, and to act nobly. But this will not last long.

Very soon, a cruel person will start blackmailing you to get what he wants. At first, you will simply be afraid of him, then you will feel guilty, and he knows how to convince you of this. And in time you will become a classic victim of psychological violence.

There is only one way to fight cruel people: do not allow yourself to be treated like that. People who break your boundaries have only one goal - to break your self-esteem and control you.

You will feel that you are in control of total control. But don't give up! Remember that "the strongest person is the one who holds himself." Therefore, keep calm and save yourself!

A cruel person runs his game hard, so don't even try to play it. The main thing is to act quickly to respond instantly to all hidden threats. If you feel that his behavior is annoying and disturbing, just walk away. But better yet, say goodbye to a cruel person forever.

Unfortunately, it will never change.
