"You're not helping anyone with your actions."
Translation: "You're not helping me and what I believe is the right thing for everyone to do and act."
Discussion
Subvert as a matter of course. Make dissent a habit. Be free from those who wish to control you. Force them to cooperate rather than rule.
Maybe they’re actually not helping anyone
No one performs any action without benefit. Sometimes that benefit is short sighted and the action destructive in the long run.
Controlling what people do is just that.
