This reminded me of a skit by George Carlin-
“If I vote for dishonest incompetent people and they get into office and screw everything up, then I’m responsible for it. If I, on the other hand, did not vote, then I am not responsible for the mess you created that I have nothing to do with.”
It’s a pretty nihilistic viewpoint, but I do think there’s some validity to the argument that participating in a broken system is counter intuitive in some cases.

We truly live in strange times, where environmentalists, climate change activists, and big oil work together to fight against nuclear power. The latter takes advantage of the formers idealism and perfectionism to blunt progress. Nuclear is such an obvious choice when renewables are potentially a century or more away from being able to adequately serve our needs.
