We have the capability to destroy the world. This was impossible 200 yrs ago. This to me represents the very living embodiment of human failure and antithesis of progress and negates everything else.

You mentioned 'us' and 'them'. I don't feel angry at an invisible 'them'. There are enough real enemies of you and me, many of them are memes, many of them are sly pieces of paper passing a law or ignoring another. As for being blameless, that's an inpossibility, every cause has an effect, the best most of us can do is only promote the good causes. But when you've got one person thinking a good cause is buying more weapons and keeping their thirst at bay with a soft drink manufacturer that sponsors violence, and another thinking a good cause is growing vegetables in the ground and drinking homemade lemonade, then what?
