Gotta say, I’m not a fan of people just yelling at people speaking publicly.
It's really the only opportunity to, otherwise they are holed up in an office and have the people arrested.
The wicked shall have no peace.
Ok, so anybody that gets yelled at in public is wicked?
Syllogism.
Gism
As for hills to die on, I gotta say this is some kinda record for sheer fucking stupidity.
“Not a fan” is pretty fucking far from dying on a hill.
When else are they going to do it where other people can observe? Where the optics can't be contained and managed away so that who they're yelling at doesn't have to listen or care? This is like asserting only orderly protests should be tolerated because anything else is inconvenient or jarring, but that does not motivate change or action. It's effectively saying just sit down and shut up about your concerns however real and well founded they are.
Bad guys can yell at good guys too. It doesn’t mean anything. And it gets posted in here like it’s a big deal, but it’s literally meaningless.
This guy sucks, not cause somebody wants to yell in a room where you’re supposed to listen. He sucks for real reasons.
Sorry, but none of that is a good reason not to make yourself heard when people are listening. Bad guys also drink water and breathe oxygen, which is not a reason to not do those things. If anything it's an opportunity to point out why the bad thigns are bad and reinforce the moral and social norms and mandates.
Whatever makes you feel good, just do it. It’s probably ok. Nobody else matters and you’re always right. You do you boo boo.
