Fuck grassroots.

I mean that.

Grassroots Initiatives only serve to keep people from getting organized.

Yeah, it's great in the beginning when everyone in the group are friends, but you get over 10 people, it's all over.

Everyone's trying to preach equality, and no one is allowed to be in "charge" and next thing you know, there's more fucking committee meetings to have a goddamn bakesale than it takes to pass a bill in parliament.

Sometimes it's tricky, but successful models have leaders and figureheads. They'll even admit to their clique behaviour.

So fuck grassroots and led someone drive the damn movement.

Yeah, you've hit it pretty well bang on.

It also boggles my mind why organizations turn down "free money" from sponsors. Just learn to accept it on your own terms.

...or at the very least, use it to combat the problem which prevents you from wanting to accept it in the first place.

Offered a sponsorship by Halliburton? Take it and give 75% to Greenpeace.
