It's still several steps above of spreading misinformation and useless negativity.
How is this worse than throwing you hands up and shouting "Don't try because it only works sometimes"? Or even worse, "don't try because it never works"?
Pretty sure I see on a daily basis here on Lemmy some highly upvoted comment saying that trying to use the democratic or legal processes to oppose MAGA is a waste of time and then usually clumsily insinuating we should all be shooting at Ice instead. Which is fundamentally terrible advice by really any measure. That's what I take the authors point to be.
And how is asking people to stop shitting on your attempts to use the legal system somehow being spun as shitting on those critics?
