I've come to think that the majority of people are simply weathervanes. It's not a matter or being "good" or "decent" people, they're just a product of their class interests and their social environment. It's possible to defeat that, but on average people do not and will not do so.
Many (I would estimate at least a plurality of but possibly a majority of) Americans and Europeans are, deep down, little Hitlers. This is because the decay of capitalism gives them a choice between Hitler and Lenin, and Hitler benefits them by allowing them to continue to pilfer the third world.
