I'm not so sure about supposed Judeo-Christian values. I am inclined to suggest that Carl Jung was right about shadow selves. It's the part of us, like trauma, shame, resentment, and other things we keep hidden. A green light's been given to unleash this part of ourselves. It's externalized unresolved internal issues. It's why I have family members who say a politician says what they're thinking. The shadow self isn't necessarily a negative thing to have but it's being directed and amplified that way. People are broken instead of becoming whole. Weaponized.
