Overwhelmingly conservatives do not pictures themselves as evil. They do believe that everything is zero sum so making positive changes somewhere means negative changes in other places. They do not believe in “win-win” scenarios and believe there is a catch or additional conditional clause.
By this logic they also see the tremendous harm being done and believe that there must be an inverse, so tremendous good being done. That’s their faith in the economy or security or some vague idea like “prosperity” filling in the gap. They don’t want to be evil or encourage harm but only through great harm can we achieve great salvation.
It’s fucked thinking but one that is important to consider. They NEED a trade off whether gold or bad. The truly evil people are the ones who don’t need good, like billionaires, and still inflict harm. There are about 1,000 people who can have their resources shared with the world and literally 80% of all problems like war, housing, and food security will be solved.
