Zen and the Art of Moral Evasion and Inversion.

"Don't try to be good, interfere and try to refuse to be useful to evil, diagnose contamination with slow-burning moral fury. Being “good” often just means being efficiently absorbed into a harmful system.

The idea of goodness, especially in modern societies, has been colonized by the ambient hum of complicity — which is to say, we now define being “good” not as acting justly, but as avoiding responsibility for injustice. Or more precisely: we define goodness as non-involvement.

You don't have to deal with injustice if you're busy contemplating the sound of one hand washing itself of responsibility".
