most suffering is self inflicted and or brutal people inflict it on us

Those are two opposite categories.

The question at hand is why the lack of intervention in the second category.

If God got involved with every little thing in life, people would bitch that they had no freedom and God controlled everything. You would not like that, I would bet. If you don’t like the government controlling most of your life, and they do, why would anyone want God to be involved in everything? He gives us “volition”. The right to screw up but also the right to fix it and to do good. Mankind is sinful, everyone must know that by now. Don’t blame God for our shortcomings.
