If you don't care about whether you actually affect meaningful change as a result of your actions I don't know that you can be trusted to act in good faith toward that end. This isn't appeasing liberals, this is trying to not get snuffed out in the early hours of our renewed struggle. The left needs numbers, and just going out doing stuff with no consideration for that aim is short-sighted and does a disservice to the rest of us who actually care about affecting meaningful change.
