So, it may not be an increase of evil so much as a redistribution of it, I suppose. Different folks see things differently, and their perceptions are necessarily educated by their past experiences. Folks will, because of that, naturally notice things they had no opportunity to notice before as "something new", where folks who did have that opportunity will not notice it so much - it just looks like business as usual to them.

When I speak of the veil being lifted, I am speaking of exactly what you speak.
Evil has been with us since the beginning of time. The Bible speaks of the casting out of demons, and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the whole world, was to erase evil.
You are right that the majority of us have not seen or lived with blatant, fierce, in your face evil. Evil is not in the shadows anymore. It is bold, arrogant, and in your face. For those who lived with hidden evils, the veil is being removed from their eyes.
I thought that I was familiar with evil, because I so often came face to face with the victims that had been hurt and traumatized by such evil deeds that I had trouble processing them.
I still cannot wrap my mind around someone abusing an infant. I thought that was the most vile and evil thing that a person could do.
I have found that it is impossible to understand evil because it travels to places my mind cannot follow and remain intact.
Yes. Evil has moved into backyards were people thought they were safe. It is becoming frequent, but I pray that it never becomes normal.
