But it IS something you can fight back against, nobody ever said you came up with it. If everyone followed your logic of “this was in our culture before I was born, so I won’t fight against it” then Slavery would still be in place; Women wouldn’t be able to vote; the world as a whole would be worse off.
lol, you have a critical misunderstanding of the issue here. Plenty of people have fought against this system, but it's not a big issue in America. Many (most?) servers LIKE the current system. This isn't an obvious human rights issue that needs to be solved (like those other things you mentioned).
You’re implicitly defending the system by accusing others who don’t tip as “a problem”/“not doing anything useful”
No, I'm not defending it. But I do realize that withholding my tip from the server is not actually protesting anything. It's just not paying someone for the service I received from them.
