It's not a bad thing. Pulling people together for common cause is good. I'm not opposed! I was just suggesting additional courses of action that pull on levers that have a better chance of influencing the outcome

My thought is that it's whatever we can do - we should be contacting congresspeople, writing comments, writing op-eds, and contacting and pushing for funding assertions.
And of course kicking butt in the peer-reviewed department as well ... for the important/urgent stuff that requires vigor (for the lab I am in we are full steam ahead on systematics work)
The most important part though for me is purposeful and NOT solely performative/personally congratulatory work; too darn much of that for like, the past 10 years
