      I think ineffective pushback is bad and I’m on the wrong side? I think wasting time on things that are ineffective is bad and I’m on the wrong side?

      We are so fucked 🤪

        Well to start, the effectiveness isn’t possible to measure at this point.

        However, the comment had nothing to do with that, and instead was about you comparing attempted protests to “participation trophies” which is a conservative dog whistle for “kids these days don’t have that dog eat dog capitalist spirit, do we need more lead in the air again?”

        For context, WW2 was faught and won with participation trophy snowflakes. If it was good enough to defeat Nazis then, it’s good enough to defeat Nazis now.
