@EdgeOErin That is my take on it as well.
People seem to be keenly aware that there are good guys and bad guys, but they assume that if one side is bad, the side they pick must be good.
This allows actual bad guys to do whatever the fuck they want, while people revile the victims of one side or another.
Humanity is being tricked into devouring itself and all it touched.
It doesn't have to be that way.
