You don't know either way if a comment makes a difference or not. It likely won't, but again, you don't know. what if yours is the linchpin?
if you don't want to be doxxed, don't use your name to submit your comment or your IP (use a VPN/tor/I2P). You're allowed.
In any case, the spirit of the post acknowledges that a comment is low on the totem poll of things to do. Go do the other three things mentioned.
I am already a big fan of the privacy measures you mention. Regarding the comments, after getting your reply I realized that I no longer want to play the game. It's not a criticism of your post or opinion. For me, I have had a lifetime of playing the game. The truth is I don't want to validate the process by participating in it. I don't believe individuals have the power to change the system. The idea of a U.S. democracy is a charade. That's just my opinion. You are entitled to yours. For the record, I hope you're right and I'm wrong.

that's the problem. its Schrodinger's cat. we're both right and wrong at the same time. so the only option is to play the game and act in good faith in the hope that it matters. to do otherwise is to give your silent consent.

I see it differently. In my heart I no longer recognize their authority.

Indeed. Very few people start asking the important question: from where is coming YOUR authority over me?
Authority must be given with consent, not taken by force.
You are an ex-lawyer and you know it very well. A power of attorney / authority MUST be given.
I was LITERALLY in a court room and I asked the judge:
Please provide me any document signed by me and consented that I gave the authority over me, the living man, to anybody in this room.
I asked 3 times. And I get only silence.
The judge closed the case and everybody went home.
