It&#x27;s amazing how the same media outlets will play both sides for maximum views. Sometimes (though not this time) from the same author.<p>Hype up a &#x27;movement&#x27; or protest until it is able to hit critical mass. Have nothing but encouraging words to share. Then when it is mostly self-sustaining and has a large group of people who have invested too much to back down, start fighting against the movement. Fan the flames to create two groups on both extremes (&quot;pro-movement&quot; and &quot;grow up already&quot;) shouting over each other, not accomplishing anything and reaching no agreements.<p>Neutrality doesn&#x27;t sell as well as extremism. This has happened with every protest&#x2F;movement in recent memory. They jump from one movement to the next because as the fire dies out the clicks stop coming in.
