strong piece, but you’re assuming power creates monsters… what if it just exposes them

I don't think it's an assumption, it's the fundamental truth of human nature. You see, a man can only be virtuous when he willingly ignores that inherent beastly nature of man.

Power doesn't just expose, it corrupt as man is inherently corruptible.

if corruption was inevitable, integrity wouldn’t exist but it clearly does

That further contradicts your thought as integrity is simply a mere suppression of inherent corruption.

if everything is just suppression then your argument is too so why should it be taken as truth instead of just another instinct dressed up as logic?
