Ok, how about we turn this around since you have very high standards for what you consider an accomplishment. What have you succeeded at?

Alright, olive branch. I understand that it’s never good to put people on a pedestal, but this is a weird thing to pull from current events. What we have is a person, regardless of “credentials” joining a flotilla with the goal of bringing food through a blockade.
Fame or motive aside, it’s a good thing to want to help people, full stop. We shouldn’t crab brain things like this and pull people back into the bucket.
We also shouldn’t idolized them, understood.
BUT
You also shouldn’t be so fixated on whether people celebrate this person. Let’s just be happy that there are some folks on the front lines fighting injustice, and mad at people that want to stomp that out. It’s really easy.
Those that can help should help, and those that can’t, or won’t, should just move out of the way. Doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.
