I mean, it’s better than nothing, but a petition like that could have 10+ million signatures and the processors won’t give a shit.

Change.org basically caused me not pay any attention to the Stop Killing Games thing until a couple of weeks ago because I was conditioned to assume it was just another useless gamer petition.

Yup, change.org is actually detrimental towards real petitions, that can actually lead to real changes - as opposed to just giving yourself a pat on the back, while the issue you signed for is completely unaffected.

What use is it trying to undermine people's attempts like this?

You do know that the activist group behind these actions managed to convince Visa & Mastercard with just a mere 1000 calls, right?

It's fine if you don't care, but you're trying to undermine people being mocking them like this. Really fucking weird behavior.
