The perception of "fighting" is sometimes erroneous. For instance, protesting is not fighting. Protesting is useful for drawing attention to possible cracks in the societal foundation. It points, it doesn't punch. Thinking you're fighting when you're protesting is erroneous. If you're using protesting effectively as something that draws the attention that otherwise wouldn't be given, great! If you're protesting thinking you're changing the world, you're next to useless.
Most of the discussion I've seen about fighting is actually about going through motions to help relieve feelings of helplessness. It's a coping mechanism, not an effective strategy. We've told the voters for ten years that we see things we consider bad, and the voters response was to vote for Trump in greater numbers. This is not an effective strategy. What is effective is engaging with others to create a consensus, and that is done by showing a benefit. Telling people Trump is bad is not of benefit to them because they want Trump to do things. If you're only dividing people into groups of good people and bad people, you can't create the unity of consensus. You can't fight; you have to agree.
