I heard lots of very similar comments about protests in France, always from people who didn't even join the protests in the first place, too.

I appreciate the often simultaneous complaints that:

  • A) The protests weren't impactful enough
  • B) The protests should just end already because they've been negatively impacted

Like, guys... either be nihilists or reactionaries, but don't try to be both at once. Strikes hurt everyone; that's the point.

The only message a 2 day blackout sent to the CEO of Reddit was "wait two days and everything will be normal again". Dunno why you'd do two days only to follow it up with an indefinite shutdown. Seems like a bunch of time wasted, and more confusing to redditors who just want a feed of stuff they like, making it harder to decide if they should leave for an alternative like kbin or Lemmy.
