There's a pretty big gap "making it on the news to raise awareness for your cause" and "mastabatory shitposting on social media"

dude isn't sneaking video evidence of wrongdoing out of a factory farm... just photoshopping bad dentures on sharks.

I agree that any movement needs both friendly and provocative advocacy to affect change, but the only thing these types of posts accomplish is helping OP feel superior.

Would you level the same criticism against someone posting memes about climate change?

If the posts were this pointless and unthinking, yes.
