My notion of how to proceed in a society to bring change is not to
protest the thing that is evil, but rather to let it die its own death.
And I think we can state that the power structure is dying because it
cannot make any inspiring statements about what it is doing. I think
that protests about these things, contrary to what has been said, will
give it the kind of life that a fire is given when you fan it, and that
it would be best to ignore it, put your attention elsewhere, take
actions of another kind, of a positive nature, rather than to continue to
give life to the negative by negating it.
