Sadly, you don't have to be a psychopath or a sociopath to glorify or celebrate the suffering of yourself or others. For example, there's a lot of mainstream worldviews which readily see forcing oneself or others to struggle, suffer or even die as being good and any attempt to lessen or stop them as being inherently bad. The argument usually goes "A real X is strong, and anyone who isn't is just a [p-word]" or "People from [x group] are just lazy because of Y progress and don't know what real work/struggle is like" or "I suffered from X back in my day, and I turned out fine and/or became better for it!".

Again, you can mad lib whatever specific group/philosophy you like, but I'm betting that everybody here has heard at least one line from that from a perfectly "normal', functioning member of society.

The point is, it's an easy thing to convince yourself of.
