I would say like an “aching nostalgia”
Not for a like place or person, but for a version of yourself that only existed in fleeting moments. A self you met once, maybe during a sunset or a song, and have been missing ever since.
Like “what happened to her?”

There is a woman on Instagram who was a stay at home mom and is currently divorcing her abusive husband, and baby with every single post there is absolutely no way any man can convince me to give up my financial freedom.

Yeah, the smaller, more targeted protests seem to be making the biggest difference, ironically. (Tesla, Target, etc.) In the US, it’s not really effective to hit them in the symbolism. You have to hit them in the capitalism.
I feel like the Tesla protests are making a difference. The brand is toxic, Elon Musk is well on his way to being the least popular person in the world, and the protests have been a big part of that.
