Now that the US Presidential election is over, all the various grievances which were political activism masquerading as social causes, have now run their course.
These various initiatives and concerned corporations will magically return during future elections.

This is the confluence of expression, egoism, ideology and capitalism smashing together on the internets. Only a highly structured social system with 'social rules built in' I think can combat that. See: any 'old world culture' where tons of rules and norms exist 'off the books' which keep civilisation in check. For better or worse.
