Picking the low hanging fruit is definitely the way. There are so many little things that everyone can do *today* to fight back. The problem I always encounter when I give a similar spiel is that it doesn't sound impressive or sexy enough.
For example -- "I hate big tech censorship, but one guy deleting his facebook isn't gonna do anything."
Simplicity and hard work are the hardest things to sell.
That's why I'm rehashing with a slightly different spin. Do it for the psychological jolt if nothing else. The accumulated effect of such small hits might lead up to something or it might not. But even in the worst case, you are primed for real action with a real opportunity does arise.
Time to push the Yellow Pill metaphor.
(I just wish the clip included the part where Lonesome Rhodes tells the ad execs to make the pill yellow. I think it is earlier in the same scene.)
