Cruelty Has a Human Heart: A Journey into Human Nature

Page Description

Explore the complexities of cruelty and compassion in human nature. Uncover the ethical dilemmas, choices, and systems that shape acts of harm and healing.

Cruelty is often seen as something distant – an abstract force or an inhuman act. Yet, when we look closer, we find that its origins lie within us. Cruelty wears a human face, driven by fear, ignorance, power, or indifference. This truth is as uncomfortable as it is undeniable: behind every act of harm, there are choices, decisions, and actions made by people, often in the name of justice, order, or survival.

This webpage delves into the complexities of cruelty in the human experience, exploring the moral and ethical dilemmas it presents. Through stories, historical examples, and philosophical reflections, we examine questions such as:

  • What drives people to commit acts of cruelty?
  • How do systems and societies enable harm under the guise of authority or tradition?
  • Is compassion the antidote to cruelty, or is it merely another facet of human nature?

By understanding the human heart’s capacity for both harm and healing, we aim to uncover not only the roots of cruelty but also the potential for change and redemption.

Join us as we navigate this intricate and deeply human subject, seeking answers that challenge our assumptions and deepen our understanding of what it means to be human.

The Inquiry

The inquiry gives us a window into the heart of the scandal. What did the Post Office executives know, and when did they know it?

Post Office Horizon IT inquiry continues with evidence from Mike Young, former chief of technology and operations services director

Mr Young was pushed on why he didn’t inform the board of the glitches with the Horizon software, when it was his job to do so.

The Post Offfice scandal saw more than 900 subpostmasters prosecuted for stealing, based on incorrect information from an IT system known as Horizon.

A long-running inquiry into the issue has been gathering evidence of the failings of the system at the Post Office, after the convictions of hundreds of postmasters were quashed earlier this year.

The Post Office continues to use the system despite heavy criticism over the issues.

Thousands of Post Office subpostmasters said they have still witnessed unexplained problems with Horizon over the past four years, according to a recent survey.
