It was a shock to realize that there are people who WANT the cruelty, the injustice, to continue. Not that they are particularly cruel themselves, but for the sake of "business as usual." Yes, they would sacrifice millions of lives for business as usual. They would, in fact, sacrifice our world (which is also theirs) in order to have business as usual. They are, in fact, doing it now.
They have the wealth, the power, and all the weight of an unjust system behind them. They care nothing about democracy, or morality, or any human value. They know that it is "business as usual" that enables their greed.
They also know,
even if we don't,
that we have the power
to stop them.
