Ultimately it is US!
"We have seen the enemy and he is us!"

Yep. Evil can do what it can get away with.
The inattention of many toward what is happening has permitted Evil to permeate our lives, family, religion and system of government.
A lot of it is self-absorption on nonsensical things like controlling the climate of a world that we can never control, buckling under when freedoms have been eroded rather than fighting, permitting ourselves to abandon the morality of life in the pursuit of self-gratification, and allowing emotions, not logic, to rule our activities and wellbeing, such as in welfare, race relations, and fundamental financial management that says spend only what you earn.
We are like kids that get away with what we can if not corrected. So far, we have gotten away with a lot.
But a day of reckoning will be upon us, as we have a judge who will decide on his own whether we abided by the principles laid down for us to obey.
