Confused

What is happening in the world today? Everything seems to be upside-down. We have wicked callousness in positions of power and importance, telling us that they themselves are really the good ones, and marginalising those people who don't quite fit. We see the structures of co-operation crashing down around us. We see greed glorified and the vulnerable vilified. The countries of the world seem to be ruled by those who do not want peace. There is so much rampant 'lower common denominator', populist, isolationist stuff going on. It really is frightening.
