"I know they don't change because I've read their material."
You're using anecdotal evidence to support an impossible claim. Humans are malleable and designed to be constantly adapting and changing depending on the environment. That you would actually try to convince me that humans are not malleable is, well, very limited thinking.
"I can't pretend to be happy about genocidal psychopaths who grow their power constantly because of the naivety of their opponents."
Then the joke is on you. Continue to enjoy responding negatively to negativity. Continue to enjoy putting yourself through unnecessary stress. The wise ones will continue to not let anything bother us. I always find it amusing when someone desperately tries to defend their instability and unhappiness.
"They expect"
Why do you concern yourself with such foolish people? Anyone who engages in "expectations" is a fool - be more mindful of who you focus on. Find confident people and follow their lead.
"What I meant is being nice to your oppressors will not save you."
Depends on the situation, but what's most important is being nice to yourself.
"There's no reason to try because they would gladly kill you if they had even the slightest chance of getting away with it."
You can be nice to someone while holding up your shield. They can't kill you if you have good self defense. If you're killable, then you failed at mastering martial arts and wisdom. Don't be a loser or a sucker.
"But when their ideology literally states to feign changing as a weapon..."
Real change cannot be feigned.
"I took it to the extreme position of never trusting a woman that I'm not related to"
What does women have to do with it? You shouldn't trust ANYONE. What are you talking about? The only people you might be able to trust are your parents. The dollar says to trust God, not people.
