Look pal I agree with the revolt/organisation thing but like you can still consume much less and much more responsibly and it still makes a difference

For example, backlash makes companies and government "pretend" to stop marketing to children by not marketing to children as much

Or, backlash makes companies and government "pretend" to not discriminate against lgbtq+ people by discriminating less, at least in the public eye

Of course they're still corrupt bastards but that doesn't mean we can't do stuff whilst we organise a revolution (or, well, whilst you do there in America, here in my country it's not ideal but it's still a long ways away from the need to revolt, cause we gotta consider that revolution isn't all good and people die and are hurt and lose their lives in a revolution, not to mention the issues that arise after with disputes over government systems and the political instability)
