In today's environment, moralists would argue "it's immoral to not have an opinion, i.e. if you are in a position of power and are not actively using your voice to reach out to your audience in order in favour of populist opinions, you are in the wrong."
I don't know what to make of it. I think it's great that people fight for what they believe in but at the same time, "inaction" is becoming more and more difficult.
