The Human Problem
The human problem is simple and repeatedly results in our current condition: Good people are only willing to do good things to try and stop bad people. Bad people are quite capable of enduring all the good things good people do to try and stop them.
And bad people are quite willing to do bad things in order to get whatever they want. Good people are not willing to do the bad things that are necessary to stop bad people from doing bad things to them. So bad people end up ruling over good people who only do good things to try and stop them.
This will remain a fact of life until good people are willing to do the bad things that are necessary to stop bad people.

Good people need bad people to improve. Even good people sometimes care a lot about enjoyment. If a person tries to be good for everyone, then he most likely agrees with the bad ones in order to be in a calm state. Sometimes you switch places when you do bad things and bad people do good things. We want to change others, but no one wants to change themselves, and the Bible is just aimed at making a person change himself, then he will be able to talk differently and be able to change others with his actions. So it is not necessary to look for your problems in another person, you need to look for opportunities. In any case, God created the circumstances, and we cannot blame God. So we must do as Paul said: it is a great achievement to be godly and contented.
I found an English version on Google so that there is an exact translation: "Godliness with contentment is great gain"

What about when Good people mistake who the bad people is because of bad people's propaganda?

Yeah, TI-994A, there's nothing good or bad...............
Yamaoka Tesshu, as a young student of Zen, visited one master after another.
He called upon Dokuon of Shokoku.
Desiring to show his attainment, he said: “The mind, Buddha, and sentient beings, after all, do not exist. The true nature of phenomena is emptiness. There is no realization, no delusion, no sage, no mediocrity. There is no giving and nothing to be received.”
Dokuon, who was smoking quietly, said nothing. Suddenly he whacked Yamaoka with his bamboo pipe. This made the youth quite angry.
“If nothing exists,” inquired Dokuon, “where did this anger come from?”

Life is merely a confluence of conscious perceptions.

And the best confluence is when an Italian tastes a Napolitan Margherita
