"Point being you cannot defer to the institution. Go for the individuals."

Nor can you deter an institution from its course - unless you can make it clear to those who run it that unless they change their ways they'll have a shortage of individuals willing to risk working there. So go for individuals. It may be the only thing that works. "Working through the system" is a myth, and everyone knows that down deep.

They need to realize these structures let individuals avoid responsibility and insulate them from the consequences of their actions. Then real progress will be made.
