Minimum resistance: Challenge every new 'initiative' if you think it comes with more costs than benefits.

Moderate: Petition for change. You can do this within your University (Microsoft Forms) with other like-minded people.

Bold: Lobby funders. Why should they waste money? More on this soon.

But it's up to us. That's what I meant by the responsibility of intellectuals (the bit of the article that seems to have been ignored; photo is of a young Noam Chomsky).

Sadly, we've got used to learned helplessness. I'm as much to blame as anyone else. Only way out is to resist in everyday life.
