Is there a term for when you get a politically motivated group to expend their energy on an action that has basically no impact by convincing them they are winning if they do it? Like right-wing folks running their gas stoves or this new trend of trans people and allies spamming Hogwarts Legacy spoilers?

#Politics #Political Action #Culture Wars #← Imagine that in sarcasm quotes #Gas Stoves #Hogwarts Legacy #Before someone fights me on the latter example #(because of course someone will)#everyone who wants to avoid spoilers is already avoiding spoilers #and if you are vocally anti-Rowling most of your followers probably aren't even playing the game #so basically you end up filling a bunch of trans people's feeds with spoilers for a game we aren't playing #(or at least my feed)#I am annoyed by the gas stove thing too though because it has bled over onto our side a little #because some of my climate activist circles have bought into the idea that this needs to be one of our big foci #Like no can we get back to focusing on the corporations that are probably worse than like all the gas stoves in Florida combined?
