I actually don't disagree with you on this, I just think that if someone believes it as a personal thing just for themselves, I'm not interested and I don't care. It's only when you get people who move into politics with it that's a problem.

But these people are the fuel for these politicians. If they didn't exist, if these views became unpopular, the politicians wouldn't push their agenda, since they couldn't cash in on votes. Truth is, they keep each other going. And so the individual very much counts if you actually want to change how things are handled.
