The thing about the worst people like dictators and oppressors, they depend on two: "supporters" (often likeable people) and "watchers" (sit by and let the evil happen).

According to hadiths attributed to Ahlulbayt (as) and proven by Quran, and they even quote Jesus in this respect, the watchers are partners with the oppressors.

This is a rational stance. It's easy to be good and neglectful. But it's also a paradox to be good and watch the oppressors have their way.

To be good is to be with the oppressed and against the oppressors. And to do that, one most be with the truthful leaders from God who show the truth and way to justice, though at times, afflictions and turmoil hits the ship of salvation pretty hard, we have to be patient.

Most evil people usually think their actions are good.  Watchers who watch oppressors and do nothing,  they will be awakened to a rude awakening.

I can agree with this. Unfortunately there are people who will say the Abrahamic god isn't as bad or worse than any dictator on Earth. That's where we start having problems between religious and nonreligious. The supporters will oppress anyone who tries to stand up to them, making watchers out of everyone who isn't brave enough to stand up, but who aren't as radical as the diehard supporters.
