While I disagree with the OP's point of view, I don't think the type of thinking is wrong. And here's an example why: In Cowboy Bebop, the Japanese animated show, there is a scene with two characters smoking outside. It is clear during the show that they are morally grey at best, and yet they both have a cup with them to catch their cigarette's ashes, even though they are outside on top of an old boat (a sci-fi one). Such a detail is meaningless in the overall scheme of things, but the mentality is what matters: by living in a society where every individual does their best, no matter how meaningless, is how you end up with streets as clean as those of Japan, where everyone carries their garbage with them. Individual action is important to create a societal mindset - if you inspire two people to change their behavior, it scales up.
