Some people actually need an angry remark to know they are being an asshole, so there’s no need to say all negative activism is bad. Sometimes, it indeed does the opposite of helping, but the same can be argued for positivity.

But them dismissing you isn’t necessarily your fault for doing activism “the wrong way”.
