Pirsig has advice for those "against society" 

"Where biological values are undermining social values intellectuals must 
identify social behavior, not matter its ethnic connection, and support it 
all the way without restraint. Intellectuals must find biological behavior, 
no matter what its ethnic connection, and limit or destroy destructive 
biological patterns with complete moral ruthlessness, the way a doctor 
destroys germs, before those biological patterns destroy civilization 
itself."  (Lila, 24) 

He recommends:

"What the Metaphysics of Quality concludes is that the old Puritan and 
Victorian social codes should not be followed blindly, but should not be 
attacked blindly either. They should be dusted off and re-examined, fairly 
and impartially, to see what they were trying to accomplish and what they 
actually did accomplish toward building a stronger society." (Lila, 24)
