Unethical act can bring havoc & suffering for people in society.
Eg → Terrorism → can kill many people
Eg → If I noticed my neighbour beating his wife and did not do anything then he might physically harm his daughters or other people in society & at work place.
Also people (other) would get legitimacy and would feel that it is a right thing to do. So many people in neighbourhood would become violent & beat his wife.
Knowing a crime & not doing anything about it is a bigger crime. Eg → British & France after world war I tolerated actions of Germany. Did not stop Nazi Germany → Hatred spread in Germany → Hitler got legitimacy → world war II → Millions of deaths.
But when one takes actions against an unethical act → It leads to welfare of many people. Eg → Freedom fighters like Bose, Nehru, Gandhiji raised their voice against British rule → Freedom
