As much as Louis is on our side in this, I feel like he alone was responsible for the MOST damage to the protest efforts. After his video about how a 2-day blackout wasn't enough, dialogue from the anti-protest side started to shift heavily toward "this isn't even going to do anything," and his video was cited as often to support "we need to do more" as it was to support "you guys are stupid if you think you're doing anything." So I hope he finds some room to be pissed off at himself while he's pissed off about the "failed" reddit protest.
And, spoiler alert: it takes time for momentum to shift, and it's very much shifting - it's just not happening as fast as this guy wants it to.
Yeah it's very interesting that most scabs on Reddit sound very similar to him and his video. Even though his intention was to help the protest, ironically he's done the most damage to the protest and given the scabs and anti-protestets plenty of ammunition to use against protesting efforts.
I'm sure he's not even willing to admit where he's wrong or at fault here, he doesn't seem like the kind of person to own up, in any meaningful way at least.
