Sorry, I didn't mean to suggest that efforts toward social change are futile. I believe quite the opposite to be true. But i also believe that those who go about challenging the status quo and pushing for (or demanding) change, tend to receive the backlash of those who feel threatened by those efforts. So, for instance, when Indigenous Canadians challenge the Canada 150 narrative by reminding everyone that, for them, this was the beginning of a terrible chapter in their peoples' lives, in which they were dispossessed of their land, brutalized and de-humanized as matter of public policy, white Canadians take that as an affront, instead of a fact with which to be reconciled.
