"We've always been here" is true, in that even in countries that enjoy relatively good justice systems have people who fall through the cracks ... and people with power at every level for whom the theoretical good functioning of the justice system is a terrible nuisance. "We've always been here" is also false in the sense that, of course, things used to be quite a lot worse everywhere, and that the current rule of law in many countries today would be considered utopian by the people who died in worse periods of human history. Which point of view is more beneficial for society to embrace? Hands down, I think it's "truth and justice propaganda was BS." It's in society's best interests to watch everyone with power like a hawk.
