Simplified Meaning:
When bad things happen and no one steps in to stop them, it's often because the people who could make a difference choose not to act. Imagine a bully taking lunch money from kids at school. If no one stands up to the bully, not even by telling a teacher, the bully will keep doing it. This happens in the wider world, too. If honest people don't speak up against unfairness or injustice, those bad actions will continue and grow worse. It's important for everyone to try and do something when they see wrongdoings, even if it's just a small step, because their actions can help stop bad things from spreading. By standing up and doing the right thing, even in small ways, people can make the world a better place.
