Pretty much yes, and so are the good ones. Such is the nature of systems. A thing becomes visible as and labeled as "a system" only after it's quite stable and resilient, i.e. after it has developed effective responses to common "attacks" (deliberate or otherwise). Achieving fungibility of 99.9% of individual humans is like objective #1 and the systems that fail to achieve it don't exist long enough to be problematic.
So you you think, without those few bad folks, these systems would not tend to break, or that these few bad folks are not being challenged? I.e. do you think these few bad folks are completely inconsequential at a systemic level?
