They also only ever believe that when it's about work THEY have to do. If it's about other people, or it's about things that directly affects them, the tune suddenly changes.

I can't, as an individual, end rape culture. Is that therefore an excuse to keep making rape jokes, defending rapists etc.? Obviously not, but by the logic of "people against individual change" it's entirely logically consistent. As long as I say "rape culture bad", I can keep supporting it. I just have to wait for magical "systemic change without individual change" to rain down from heaven.
