Obviously I can't name names, but in the real world there have been actively evil cultures and ideologies that internally cared about their own to a sometimes extreme degree. Reducing evil to "always kicks babies, even their own" is not a functional way of looking at the matter.
There are isolated exceptions, of course, but if those cultures and ideologies were as successful as normal human behaviour, they would be a lot more of them.
How do you keep a fool busy? Turn upside down for answer.
