In today’s Tanya, the Alter Rebbe, well, pretty much describes us to the tea – he speaks of three types of people, the first is one who lacking self-discipline allows their instinctual desires (be it laziness, anger, sloth, melancholy, addictions) to overpower their soul’s moral convictions – lower is one, who is so morally debased and so, say addicted or angry etc. that they even lack thoughts of remorse; their consciousness has been sublimated to their desires (and elsewhere, he explains, only if they realize their own repugnancy, for example, in the case of addiction, they say addicts need to hit rock-bottom – when they realize how debased and shameful they have become! – can they break the hold of the desire over their mind – In other words, and this is very important for us to realize, people who are evil (anti-semites, radicals, jihadists etc.) are not even capable of having a rational thought, as their hate is their only thought process.)
