Also known as sociopaths, social darwinists, narcissists, or greedy bastards.
In their eyes people who do good, care about others, are merely fulfilling their own goofy needs. Humanity is just another organism struggling to fulfill a predetermined biological function. Things like compassion, sacrifice, are seen as essentially selfish. i.e., if you give up your kidney to save someone elses life, it isn't an act of compassion or humanity, but due to some inner greed on your part.
In their eyes, Gandhi, MLK, the Buddha, Jesus, and their like, were simply answering some personal need. Same goes for Hitler, Pol Pot, Donald Trump, or Bush.
A simplistic philosophy for simpletons.
