• Discussion of selective outrage: boycotting companies for one day while ignoring ongoing genocides
• Examination of how political tribalism leads to moral inconsistencies
• Analysis of capitalism's role in keeping citizens divided against their own interests
• Consideration of how class warfare is disguised as partisan political conflict
• Reflection on meaningful versus performative activism
• Personal safety considerations when speaking out against powerful interests
• Practical suggestions for making impact while maintaining personal wellbeing
