Why does it feel that the evil sides globally are winning. Even evil people are winning. Why?

Because it has become fashionable not to hide it.
Evil has always been winning. The early homo sapiens attacked the Neanderthals. They kept them as slaves and raped the women. (At least that is the current theories, no one "really" knows the specifics other than they "won"). It is in the nature of homo sapiens to get ahead by exploiting others. It's why they win, and why we have the technology and such we have today. A person with less morals to constrain them will win out over a moral person. I think our only realistic way out is to let AI take over. But I don’t see any reason why it won't come to the same conclusion, and then exploit us even more. But one can hope.
