I do find it somewhat humorous though that people like to complain about a matter, which is a really easy thing to do, without offering any solutions to solve or address it, which is usually a more difficult thing to do.

The world already has plenty of Statler and Waldorfs.
Recognising a problem is still valid without providing solutions on a platter.

Do you find thousands of people protesting police brutality over the last year humorous because not all of them have educated solutions in regards to reforming the police?

It’s also pretty easy to come up with fantasyland solutions like flooding money into Mexico to curb immigration. Having a solution isn’t always any more intellectual than recognising a problem and not knowing the solution. The world also has enough pseudo-intellectuals theorising on problems they don’t understand with solutions out of touch with reality.
