No kidding! I've actually hoped for the more damaging people I know to get together just so they turn their attention to each other and not to the hapless folks who just take it...but then my empathy kicks in and I realize that's not very kind of me. And then my logic kicks in and I realize that people like that can't really prey on others like them, so it'll never sustain itself.
I'm kind of hoping for something similar... not so much that they'll prey on each other, but that they'll spend so much time being each others' flattering living mirror, and preening at each other about how evolved they are, that they forget the rest of us exist, and never come back.
I'm a little evil, so I admit to the initial impulse being to want them to hurt each other. But I recognize that most (if not all) people who are callous, cruel, etc., probably had a good amount of help getting there from the callous (etc.) people they grew up around, so it's cruel in itself to hope for them to be blindly hurting each other.
Of course, if they intentionally harm others, all bets are off!
