Just because a person does not have an effective means of doing something about a problem, does not justify bizarre antics. If a person does not have anything useful they can do, ... well, don't do something crazy just because you feel stuck.

Accept your powerlessness with meekness and do not attempt to disrupt or even annoy the systems that caused it? You can't be surprised that people don't accept that bargain.

Yeah, I mean, just sit down and conform while someone steals your children’s futures. What’s the big deal? Do don’t anything crazy.
