It's unfortunate that there are so many bad teachers in the world. Each of us has a responsibility to be as accurate as possible.

Have you read about the CIA? They inflicted widespread torture and murder in many countries, to anyone who challenged US capitalism.
The CIA top guy in Uruguay, for example, got beggars off the street and tortured them to death for training purposes. It was worse than what Spinoza went through. When the Uruguayan resistance finally assassinated this murderer, Frank Sinatra did a benefit concert for his widow.
It's really easy to imagine (because we don't have to imagine it) death and destruction committed by anyone who thinks he's right and the other guy's wrong.
