No personal virtue can make good a structurally wrong relationship.

Evidence

The best of men cannot be moral if the basis of relationship between them and their fellows is fundamentally a wrong relationship. To a slave, his master may be better or worse. But there cannot be a good master. A good man cannot be a master, and a master cannot be a good man. — Ambedkar, B R, Annihilation of Caste_ The Annotated…, 1242
