I downvoted because to me it tried to say what someone else should not talk about.

I don't disagree that wrong things should not be tolerated and that giving up and accepting is no answer.

Whenever someone tries to tell a complainer to shut up, I frequently point out that in the entire history of the Earth, not one thing ever got better by accepting things as they are. It's one of my favorite things to point out. So I'm very much in the reject giving up camp.

But I don't think it's necessarily giving up or cooperating to merely explore any and all other possible solutions to any given problem, and that comment struck me that way.

My impression might be unjust, and so by disclosing it I may take a few arrows myself, but for once, one is explained. :)
