Doesn’t matter, it’s collectively, broadly true.

Leftists generally spent more time arguing amongst themselves online and glomming on to mini personality cults of prominent online influencers, fully engaging in the distractions of gender and culture wars…

… than they did spend their time on any kind of actually effective, in any but the most superficial sense, kind of messaging or actions.

Sure, if you helped run a local homeless shelter, built up some kind of actual union or a a mutual aid network, knocked on doors, rallied people in person or at least phone banked, joined an outfit or did your own actually real and impactful journalism, consistently protested, set up something like an underground railroad, started actually laying a framework for an alternate economy that could be resilient to or function during a collapse of the broader economy…

Something actually tangible?

Then hey, you actually tried.

Basically every one else just whined and complained, ineffectively.
