Poor you.  It is not surprising that criminals, deviants, and unstable
humiliated people populate every community.  There is inequity in the world.
If people can't find a purpose or acceptable identity in their lives, then
drug & sex addiction, magical thinking, and exploitation of others provide
some pleasure and sense of control.    Meanwhile, it also should not come as
any surprise that individuals in a society can learn how to play along and
give the appearance of `normal'.  The popular use of the Internet simply
brings a little more in to the light what was always there:  Lots and lots
of troubled and mentally-ill people.   It's important to make people look at
it.
