Opting out is a peaceful and powerful form of protest. In a world where personal choices often have profound impacts, opting out is a nonviolent means of expressing dissent. It can take the form of refusing to participate in systems or practices that one finds unethical or harmful, such as boycotting a product, service, or an entire industry.
By making these individual choices, people can send a clear message about their values and expectations, prompting change and raising awareness about critical issues, all without resorting to violence or confrontation.
