The solution is radical activism.
There will be no change without great personal risk, and you're right, of the heart isn't in it, it isn't going to happen. It takes a significant amount of marginalisation before people collectively rise up and break things. It's that going to happen tomorrow? No probably not. But if the teens continue as they have, it will eventually happen.
A thriving middle class will put up with a tremendous amount of bullshit to keep their happy little lives. Marginalized people with nothing to lose are much quicker to action, and we're building consecutive generations who will have nothing to lose from radical action.
