You're asking people to individually act against a systemic issue every time they see it.
Don't we do that everyday with crazier and less important things.
I just watched a 40 min video online where 4chan collectively trolled tumbler over Steven universe skin color.
Because they organized their racism, and it was a single event.
Only one time?
Definitely wasn't one time. 4chan has been spreading organized racism and culture jamming for decades
Seem like you're saying we can organize culture only when it's to be racist or when its making someone else money. It's not even organizing. It's spreading the idea that ads are out of control and how they're responsible for the enshitification we see today.
Not by mass individual acts, but organizing.
Your examples have been organized, but your advocating for mass individual action. Advocate for organized action.
Wasn't organized. It was all shit posting ideas that they agreed was funny and they individually acted on it. Same for everything else you see online. Its all memes.
Meme an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.
verb
It was deliberately organized, lol
Really, who organized it?
