You asked a direct question about how people were showing that they were not relaxed about this.
It sounds like you're still on the fence about whether it's worth trying to stop this at all tbh.

it's a kind of objectivism I think, where if something has caused harm in one context then it must be inherently and deliberately harmful and therefore condemned and rejected entirely

If there's one thing I hate in this world, it's the white man's "peace" that is absent of justice.
