This post uses a gift link, but some people do seem to be prompted to register. I can’t change SF Chronicle policy about that. They also have a history of sending lawyers after people who post archive.today links to their articles, so whatever you do, don’t plug the URL into that site.
You keep saying about what they shouldn’t do, yet you have not listed even one thing you’ve already done that is better than things you’re calling as performative. If you want to prove your point, just list these things and explain how they’re more effective than protesting.
These are not protests, they are parades. Protests dont have a set start and end time. Protests continue until things change.
Not saying they couldn’t do better, but they are for sure doing more than the guy not doing anything other than criticise the way of people protest on the internet.
People that are effective in protest are being ignored by liberals that think they know how to. Liberals are incapable of protesting when they dont even know what they are protesting.
Who are these people? Got any links?
If they do exist, I think you’ll find it more effective to spread the word about them instead of trying to pull down other people. You won’t find acceptance amongst the general public if all they see you do is pull down others. Be more effective in your own messaging.
