Do you ever feel that doing good is a waste of time?

Of course I don't think that it is, but I think for a lot of us, especially activists, there have been low moments where we just ask "What's the fucking point?" It's not just reading ignorant Youtube comments that makes everything feel insurmountable, but just people, often with good intentions, fear monger, and reversing any progress made in the right direction. Like this new HBO series makes me fear that people are going to think Hollywood is true to reality, and that nuclear reactors can actually explode like in Hiroshima or Nagasaki. It already has crappy PR and I'm not sure if Mr. Renck is aware of the harm he may be causing (or, more cynically, he is aware, and just isn't concerned so he can make a popular miniseries on a sensationalized disaster to capitalize on the buzz around it).
I've been that guy to look at the ignorance in a particular area that is harmful to society and humanity and just ask "What's the fucking point?" though I know that there is a point to doing good, it's just not going to come as easy as we want it to.
I just wanted to get that off my chest, thoughts?
