One problem with 2020s left-wing activism is that people fight political battles to defend their slogans instead of picking slogans that actually help them win their political battles. https://t.co/5C5APppjNV

It seems even worse than that. The advocacy class (students, academia, mainstream media, NGOs, non-profits, etc.) are
More vested in fighting over their slogans than fighting for their policies
and
More vested in their policy fights than in the fight for problem solving results
Actually solving complex problems in order to generate improvement is hard work and involves hard thinking.
Fighting over policies and fighting over slogans is mere entertainment for the shallow, callow, insincere, glory seeking social climber.
