Everyone is tired and overwhelmed and trying to find some accessible way they can push back. Cheer that!
Celebrate the small; celebrate the imperfect.
No single action is gonna solve everything, but a whole bunch of small actions start the sea change.

@vlrny Good reminder! I know I can get pretty pessimistic around midnight after reading too much news that day.

@vlrny Thanks for the reminder! We need everyone, everywhere, doing everything they can.

But what if their small piece of resistance was shitting on something? Wouldn't it be best to shit on something in solidarity? Frankly, is there anything in this administration that doesn't deserve to be shit on?

@vlrny
Those who punch down are expressing their anger in all directions. Perhaps they think that scolding will prick people to greater effort; perhaps not.Yes, it is not enough, it is never enough, because, as you say, no single action is going to solve everything.
As the saying goes, "The perfect is the enemy of the good." Those who demand perfection are always going to be disappointed.

@vlrny even if you are SURE it's performative. If you're that sure, I guess you know them personally so address it with them.

Great note. I hate it when people do that. If they need to judge someone, loan them a mirror. -

@vlrny I love this….. I find myself frustrated or hopeless because I’ll think to myself “my small act of resistance doesn’t make change”. I needed to hear this so thank you.

@vlrny@disabled.social Feels related to the two videos I watched. One was higher effort, and judgy... The other felt like it was a good job. Mind you, maybe higher effort and judgy is still good? I don't know.

@vlrny This is very true and needed saying. We need to normalise tiny positive actions.

Yes please!This is true for so many things that may not register as "resistance" as well.
If it's the direction you want the world to go, celebrate it, encourage it, don't belittle it, even if it's not <there> yet. -
