We put up with bad actors for a variety of reasons, many generally left unsaid.
Still when things in the world go to shit, when those bad actors who we actively propped up for years commit unfathomable crimes, it is the time to point fingers and say - you guys fucked up! You said you got this, that you were busy managing the world, and it was all above our pretty little heads. You didn't!
Or, really, we fucked up! We trusted them!
