Write it in the fucking sky, my friend.
People need to rediscover what the word "principle" means and why they need to be fought for.
If you care about them, you'll tolerate a little inconvenience and you'll put a little time into adapting, maybe even learning.
If you can't muster any desire to stick to principles, you'll be in threads like this forever, helpless, and complaining over and over as things continue to shift further in a direction you don't wanna go in.
For real, people often give the weakest excuses for not trying or changing something. "But, but... I will have to..." like they have never had to do anything hard before.
It's okay. They can make up for it by wanking about some glorious revolution that they can't even define much less bring about.
This. Be the change you want to be. Stick to your principles.
