For me it was the fact that I would always be slower than everyone else and I would have to put in twice the effort.

    That happens because it’s a social act. People who don’t want to, but have to due to some sort of obligation or as an indirect action towards achieving something else.

    Activism is a chore they have to do, so without people in charge sincere in what they do and aware of this type of obligation, any attempt at serious activism will end up half-baked and likely to do more harm than good.

    It’s tough to find people who do something for the sake of it and not as a springboard meant to pursue other interests.
