2. Normally, I'd agree
but these are clearly not normal times. Some sort of radical, outside-the-system change is being demanded by an increasing number of people.

If you've saying this for "years and decades," then, like me, you may be old enough to remember the political disappointments of the radical hopes of the 1960s and 1970s, but these times are not those times; those times were ripe for cultural change and a revolution in values, but the nation's institutions were still working pretty well. At this point, they've broken down. There is suffering out there such as hasn't been seen in America since the 1930s.

I think this might be different.
