By the end of chapter 80, I think I would have stood up, looked Lucius in the eye, and destroyed the dementor in full view of everyone.
That seems implausible. Most people probably think they wouldn't shock someone to death if ordered to.
At least if it isn't Azkaban, and it isn't death outright, it's probably not as bad as either, though. So if he can discredit Azkaban as a place to put criminals, that would improve things. Minimally.
Using what positivity? Harry's dark side isn't able to destroy Dementors.
Both canon and MoR seem reasonably flexible when it comes to letting people use situationally irrelevant positivity be harnessed for dementor production.
