What does power do to virtue?
Thucydides answered that question in the Melian Dialogue.
Athens sent an expedition against the isle of Melos, a Spartan colony, and demanded that they submit and pay tribute.
The Athenians argued that justice was only relevant between equals.
"The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."
Melos refused and it was destroyed.
This is realism without moral language or pretense. An Athenian democracy at home could act like a tyrant abroad.
