Don't be dismissive. Just because others can't see it, doesn't mean we should be dismissive of __them__. I know it is subtle, but I think this is important, especially if we want to be taken seriously. The whole problem is about how small things add up, and often how we can't even see the issues with the small things themselves. People's views are going to be skewed by their experiences and often, with regards to this topic, how effective (or seemingly effective) their governments are. The line is thin and hard to see. That's the whole problem in the first place. So don't chastise people who can't see the spiderweb just because you were at the right angle to see it glistening in the sun.
