From my observations I think we're seeing people who are reaping the benefits of past life betrayals of humanity.
In their next incarnation, many of them weren't entirly satisified with the rewards. Some of them ended up in troubled families, but because took they easy way in a previous life time, they have enough skills and stamina to make a career. However, they still feel something is missing but don't care to figure out what that is. As long as the general population, media and police think they are good for the planet, they feel secure.
What they don't see is that they are to blame for what they don't like about themselves and the world. Not the lazy people they project their hatred towards, and who go begging for socialism to save them from a seemingly hostile environment.
The lack of non-socialistic opposition seems to be that most people don't care to do much more than eat and sleep after they've experienced trauma -
until evil people break into their lives and make it even more miserable until they agree to do evil's dirty work (armies and corporations).
Most people don't care to awaken their consciousness - find their own narrative (frequency) and create a life for themselves. They reject (and have rejected) those who try(ied) to help them wake up, due to the fear of having to feel the pain of falling again.
We fail to see that our believes about the strength of evil determines how difficult it feels to defeat it.
