Also, add that acting against current pressures in accordance with terrible ideologies often invokes the interest of future generations, or present generations in future years. Because it's a lot easier to justify your ideology and cronyism with reference to people we can't see yet because they're in the future, rather than people we can.
Going against the public for the benefit of future peoplke is something that in practice is worse than it sounds, because if you ignore the feedback of the general public, it's much easier to act in self-serving or blindly reckless ways, even if "the public is wrong this time".
