      I generally prefer it over “trolling” although in this case it might be more appropriate. What I mean is spreading negative sentiment with the goal of subverting something.

      Spreading defeatism is enabling the oppression that you, correctly, describe as an objective reality

        Should have gone with trolling. It think internet wise it really means to trigger a response from others and they did accomplish that.

        As I have said elsewhere, I’m not above a good wail now and again and won’t fault others for crying out. Crying doesnt enable an abuser. They abuse whether or not you do. Its what you do after you cried it out that matters.
