That can be said of any organization.
Think of a typical corporation.
Some people are toxic (the 15% bad).
Some people will try to do the right thing no matter what (the 15% good). But in a typical corporation, the toxic people will usually eliminate the people who can see through them.
The vast majority will do whatever is rewarded. When the average person sees that toxic behavior gets raises and promotions, that's what they'll emulate.
The problem with our society is that the bad 15% are in charge and the good 15% have no power. (Although I would estimate it closer to 5%/90%/5% instead of 15%/70%/15%.)
It becomes an (unstable?) equilibrium, when all the leaders are toxic, and the good people are locked out of making important decisions. This leads to myths like "only toxic people make good leaders", because anyone non-toxic gets weeded out by the toxic people.
