20% of the people will always just agree with the guy with the microphone.

seems to me that 20% of people agreeing, and the remaining 80% staying silent (or 79% with 1% vocal), leads to the abuse cycle continuing.

The silent majority creates a false feeling of large consensus and inability to know the reality.
