life has no logic

There is no logic in life, what is right? what is wrong? Who is the good guy? Who is the bad guy? The policeman should enforce the law impartially, but he keeps the stolen goods for himself; the policeman should protect the people, but he unplugs other people's oxygen tubes... He is an outlier among the police, runs counter to the mainstream value orientation, and becomes a partner with the enemy , but he was eventually promoted, and the absurdity of life is evident. His colleagues may be a hundred times more diligent and conscientious than him, but they do not get the honor he enjoys. He violates the law and disregards morality, but lives like a duck to water. Society is so absurd, life has no logic.
