I think it's actually far more damaging to have people like this on "our" side, than any right winger within the GOP saying stupid poo poo. It feels like they routinely cock block any sort of progress that could be made in the field of healthcare, economic, educational and justice reform with their watered down version of being socially conscience.

At least the rich rear end in a top hat "gently caress you got mine" right wingers are easy to combat and unite against. These people are pretty successful in ensuring that any sort of progress can be legitimately made by dividing people up.

also I hope I'm not steering this thread too far off course. If need be it can be moved to "mock someone".

We’re all more than the worst thing we’ve ever done, because all human beings are capable of change. If our criminal justice system is to change, it should be designed not just to punish, but to also rehabilitate those who’ve committed crimes. There should always be the opportunity for rehabilitation, redemption and grace. We have the capacity to hold people accountable and separate dangerous people from society without foreclosing that opportunity.

So, do we continue down a path that has failed repeatedly to produce results? Do we continue with an institution that inflicts harm? The death penalty traumatizes everyone it touches: victim survivors, prosecutors, defense lawyers, prison workers and families. Former wardens, guards and execution team members report severe damage to their mental and physical health because of the stress and trauma of participating in executions and killing prisoners. It doesn’t have to be this way. The death penalty is an old-fashioned, outdated, harmful practice, and it must be abolished.

Sign the petition or pick up the limited edition 31 States Bath Bomb and join our efforts to put the focus on healing. We don’t need to kill people to teach people that killing is wrong.

Yeah, but the UN also banned Japan's whaling program, which no way would've happened without Sea Shepherd constantly getting it into the news.

In early October 2015, Japan's ambassador to the UN, Motohide Yoshikawa, announced that Japan does not accept the court's jurisdiction over research, conservation, or exploitation of marine life and would proceed with NEWREP-A, without waiting for the court's approval. On 1 December 2015 Japan sent a fleet to the Antarctic Ocean with the aim of catching 330 minke whales.[99][100] The fleet included the ship the Nisshin Maru and three smaller boats. The move was met with objections from the Australian and New Zealand governments.

Their ineffectiveness lives on :allears:

Founder of PR Firm Shut Down Over Sexual Harassment Allegations Launches Project to Protect Women at Work

quote:

Trevor FitzGibbon, one of the founders of FitzGibbon Media, a major progressive PR firm which shut down in December 2015 amidst allegations of sexual harassment and assault against him, has co-launched a new venture aimed at—get this—creating “a culture where women can flourish both in and out of the workplace.” With the U.S. Attorney in Washington D.C. declining to press criminal charges against him, FitzGibbon has now declared himself “cleared,” and apparently, an appropriate choice to lead this initiative, called Dignity for Our Daughters.
