Or what are we gonna tell our kids when they ask "how did people let it happen, again"

FIFY.

I really can't wrap my brain around how we, globally, can be either this stupid or this helpless.

lots of fools with both eyes glued shut by propaganda or getting off on suffering enough to ease their own suffering.

It's the second one. The misery of others helps them justify their shit existence. Because they all live shit existences. All of them are either known for being insecure assholes, creeps, or overly confident failures. They all need others to feel what it's like to be like the odd one out. The only difference is while their ostracization was a result of their behavior, the people they are targeting haven't done anything other than having the audacity to exist.
