I generally don't - just noting that evil rarely knows what's good for bad.
You'd have to be more specific, but if it's the ec thread....that would be an interesting take. Doesn't seem like bad is failing on account of the actions of good men, more like evil is winning on account of the actions of good men. That evil men are hoping to strengthen the ec, which is an effective tool for destroying them, would be an example of the stupidity and banality of evil - to my mind.

ISTR you arguing that it hasn't failed, in spite of its stupidity and banality, in another thread.
