My other ongoing theory is that everybody believes in "hit whatever you can reach."
You hate capitalists? Can't hit Jeff Bezos bc people love Prime too much to tarnish his rep? Well, thanks to sexism, Hillary Clinton is in your reach, you wanna hit her and ruin HER rep?

You hate disproportionate punishment? Can't hit the American penal system bc "it's just too big and we have to punish people SOMEHOW"? Well, the big bad social media shamers are in your reach, wanna hit them?

You hate illiberalism shutting down free speech? Can't hit the FBI bc too many Americans share the state's hatred of Muslims and "black identity extremists"? Well, I heard a campus group disinvited Jordan Peterson the other day, wanna hit them?

And it's just like... maybe take the energy you direct towards hitting what you can reach and instead devote it to bringing the real bad guys down to your size?
