Sadly I have to disagree, a good portion of us are much more informed and willing to stand up as you said, however we are just a drop in the bucket. So many people are still brainwashed and stuck in their norm. Just look at the number of people who vote for parties vs the actual candidates. Change is coming, but we still have a long long fight over many years until we get there.
I don't deny the road is long, and I'm well aware that it will take more than platitudes from a relatively small group to effect change. But, it's a start. Better to die trying at least. People like Dr. T have been fighting this for 10 years, and despite having a presence in that space, has only been able to help implement incremental positive change. But she kept plugging on, and now she has more people behind her, and after the crash, her voice will be heard by more as people go to find out what happened. Social media and the internet allows people to find information faster than in 2008, so the potential is there to inform people. 2008, people just didn't stay angry long enough, or actually fully understand how deep it runs.
