They always come up with some critique that kinda makes sense, but it’s also so unreasonable that it will make you realize that you just wasted time arguing with someone who already has their mind made up. For example, they will say “veteran environmentalists are more knowledgeable about what needs to be done”, it’s like okay, I don’t disagree there, how does that invalidate her efforts? At the end of the day, she is trying to make the world a better place, which is not something 90% of the population can genuinely say. It just makes me unreasonably mad that there are so many people that will just hate on anyone trying to do some good.
