As for me, I'm hanging around posting messages because I think it does matter. It matters to every guy who comes here trying to defuse the indoctrination they've received or just looking for others who feel the way they do.
But yes, as it gets worse, there are more who've inhaled a bit of the poison and can't quite see it for what it is until they get some fresh air. For me this is the key. Nobody at war with themself is fit to join the actual struggle. This is the way the Antis want it. And if we can change that by telling folks that they're normal and OK, then they're better suited to stand up for themselves however they choose to.
And that can be by building something for themself and those they love. "Protest" assumes an appeal to an authority to change its ways. I'm sure we'd like that too. But for some, they advance the cause by not recognizing the "authority." Others aren't interested in the State/Citizen dichotomy, but are figuring out ways of becoming "the man." There are many tactics. And "Protest" is the one States most like us to believe in, because its the one with the best chance of leaving the State intact as the one recognizing and incorporating the grievance of the "Protester." However some of the most successful render the State irrelevant.
