/\ Anyone who has stood in a throng or alone and taken the big fancy “Oath of Office”, be it government or military or civil service, etc., knows what is meant by "Oathkeepers". The root of the notion is in the oath. I’ve parodied this in the past as something those who take it do so for sake of the dog and the pony and often adhere to it selectively. In any case, I do understand the concept, but that doesn’t mean these perpetrators are putting it to good use.

Seems (best I can figure via books and film) that EVERYtime humanity begins to show signs of rising up from the din of mediocre minds and materialism …to lift the cosmic veil …to reveal good lovin’, maintenance, and illumination for all to see, ..the mediocre minds take arms and torch the place!

Then (I suppose) we start back at Go?
