William Gillis: Occasionally out of bubblegum

I ♥ Gillis…
Similarly, it’s not that I’m out to enforce a commitment to, say the abolition of heteropatriarchal attitudes — in a given context snubbing and passive, non-NAP breaking forms of action may be most efficient, given all the likely consequences. But in another context, yeah, I may decide to get out the baseball bats with my friends and call for a general moratorium on chewing bubblegum. Because the negative consequences likely by stepping it up a notch might in that rare case be better, all things considered, than sticking with non-“aggressive” actions.
