the silence and inaction of the majority is a fatal weapon against progress, survival and peace.
One person at a bar (a millennial,) talking loudly over others about how amazing or oppressed they are becomes annoying to the rest of the people at the bar.

The majority is silently annoyed, but nobody approaches the millennial to inform they that they are annoying everybody around them!
It seems, to maintain peace, the majority agrees to bear unpeaceful environments and succumb to actual abuse!
Of an entire nation aware that the government has overstepped its authority and function, no peaceful repose can be heard over the loudest, incorrect, most (not-at-peace) minority.
For the majority to overpower the un-peaceful minority would have to be an exercise of totalitarianism.
