So laws and societies, at least in some parts of the world, can themselves be sociopathic and psychotic?


Just as individuals or certain groups of people also can?

How else can you explain the fact that in some parts of the world such laws as allowing women to be stoned to death for cheating can exist including sometimes outright openly and even if others try, nobody can do anything to completely stop it, same or similar with other downright immoral "laws".

It at least feels that way if not something that officially and de-facto seems so.

And people are surprised that life doesn't work like an action movie or a fairytale where good guys win and evil gets it and a happy ending is delivered? Or not for that matter - as in - many people are used to it and it is no longer a surprise. A tragedy it still is though.
