Yes, that is the world we are living in. In theory highly rational and the best of all the possible world with the best possible system. And in reality, it is a world of lies and deception. And there are monsters, but they are not big, but rather set an example of the "Banality of Evil". People casually murdering, by filling out forms in their office desks.
And the heros who rise and claim to fight all that? They are usually even worse, when you look closely.

And what's "best possible" supposed to mean? That we have reached the absolute highest form of social organisation? Even if we lived in something much closer to a utopia this would be hard to defend scientifically.
