There's a difference between screaming into the echo chamber and support.

And in any case, I would disagree that we should just not talk about politics. If nothing else, there doesn't have to be a greater benefit to calling the president a shitheel for it to be worth doing if you think that.

The value of political discourse and dissent is inherent to the act, with it being a nearly universal litmus test for oppression. But actions with effect are a better option, always. Organizing, organizing, organizing! Ambient dissent is a great base to build off of, but it’s just the building blocks set properly, and there’s plenty already. Stack higher!
