This type of fatalism is part of the reason things are going to shit right now in the first place. Do you think Nestle has some magical power that makes them immune to boycotts? No. It’s the majority people throwing their hands up and going “what I do doesn’t matter anyway” that lets them get away with their bullshit.
Of course one person’s small actions won’t immediately change the world, but if everyone makes those little changes, big things do change.
Also if individuals don’t make the leap of faith to pitch in on problems that are individually intractable we are completely fucked. It’s our only route. We created these problems through collective action and collective action is what it will take to stop this ball from rolling straight off the cliff.

Gotta kill the billionaires to change anything big though.
