You’re definitely wrong, it’s just that the evil minority is willing to cheat, lie, manipulate, bribe, etc., while the good majority won’t stoop to that, and they’ve ridden that corruption to power.

What will happen is that they will eventually wake up to the fact that even kind, empathetic people sometimes have to defend their way of life against evil people who intend to take advantage of that kindness. When that switch flips, watch out.
