It's frustrating. And why I've found any online activism to be pretty pointless in the long run. You always see stats with large numbers against any given issue. And then wonder why, if that's the case, nothing ever seems to happen. And it's because of exactly what you said. They won't fight. And by fight I mean doing 'anything' that would require making major changes to their life.  They just insist that since X group is a bigger factor than regulatory system Y needs to step in and do it for them. And of course that doesn't happen. Nobody's making a big push to do anything controversial or against their own self interests if even the people pushing for it refuse to actually go along with whatever the thing is unless they more or less have a gun to their head.
