That's just a cop out, though, didn't work at Nuremberg either. The 80% who enable those asshats are the real problem becase without them Hitler would just be a loon on the sidewalk shouting obscenities.
Look at the recent UK election, the vast majority voted for the ball numbing orthodoxy of entrenchment. They overwhelming voted Labour, Tory, LibDem or Nasty Party. A tiny number voted Green, sure, not radial enough becase if they were there they'd be even more pariahed then they are now but at least not a goose step in the wrong direction and their rise is needed to move the Overton Window and allow the rise of the truly radical politcans we do need.
I see what you mean, so I need to make the following clarification.
My statement that you quoted is specific to the context of the anthroposcene topic. Not a general one, for all topics.
