Yet people get angry about evil! They rant and rave against it, shouting curses to the heavens (Or Twitter, either way)
But not angry enough to act like the people they hate take action?
I don't get it. We can end tyranny in an instant, if we simply turned our collective efforts to ending it. So why don't we, and why can they act collectively?
Because too many people can't agree on what's right bar the very basic morality stuff like "don't kill" and "don't steal".

Lot's of American's like the ones that attacked the capital have wish fulfilment envy because they've been taught they need to take action and that the best way to do that is with big sweeping battles and violence.
They've been told one of the greatest honors is partaking of such things. The world doesn't work that way though. Yeah you can look at certain regimes and say they definitely bad yet like what we saw with the fall of Saddam and Afghan War it's not always as easy as simply taking action.
Action without thought or understanding is almost meaningless.
