>you get the opposite result: You make racists look bad.

In general I find myself agreeing with your comments in this thread but here I disagree.

It's tempting to find the overall societal benefit from those actions but I don't think there is one. Or it's much more subtle than this.

I also think that it's mainly done to create chaos and get a reaction and not so much to spread x opinions. But just randomly throwing shit into the world *mostly* makes everyone get used to the smell of shit while they hate you for it. But in my experience it *usually* leads to more shit and not less shit.
