Do not overestimate anyone's human nature. Any organization, platform, or individual, once power is not effectively restrained, the ultimate outcome is almost always the same. Human nature indeed cannot withstand too high an estimate in the face of absolute power. No matter how noble the original intention, how strong the ideals, or how talented the individual or team, once external constraints and internal checks are lost, they will gradually drift toward self-corruption, self-rationalization, and self-service. The once spirited dragon-slaying youth ultimately becomes a wicked dragon.
