They have agency.

They are (presumably) grown adults.

Given the choice between THIS and the one person that could have stopped all of this from ever happening, they made the decision that led to this.

They fucked up yet again and their idiotic short-sightedness has resulted in the world being much worse off.

I don't want to hear ANY excuses for them. There are none that can justify what they have allowed to happen.
