Sadly, your analysis here is spot on. They are doing much of their wickedness for effect, not only to enjoy exercising their power over humans but to gloat and to puff up their ego amongst their brethren in strutting their stuff openly and taking credit for the cleverness it involves. It, indeed, has long been a kind of spectator sport, for what they have done is move beyond the Coliseum of old and the savage entertainments exploiting slaves as gladiators fighting to the death. They have turned the Earth into a Coliseum filled with gladiators of all sorts, increasingly, making every aspect of society into a kind of blood sport because all can be manipulated individually or collectively in various sized groupings to accomplish a surreptitious change in direction for the worse. And then they track what happens and compete with one another and with their own past feats of exploitation to see what they can outdo in reaching ever greater heights of depravity and carnage. It is regrettable to even be talking about something so macabre and evil in its makeup and impact on your world. This urgently puts the darkest possible interpretation on the famous quote of Shakespeare "All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players." They are not players, but victims of criminality and a savage disregard for the rights of others.
