There is, actually, a list of "terms" that is getting sent/has been sent to LJ management; it's at the strike post I linked to. So, in theory at least, it's a *little* more goal-oriented than just being pissy in general.
But I agree that the energy could be better directed. Thing is - the energy is there, and harnessing that energy is valuable *in itself*; getting people to realize that speaking up collectively is okay is difficult in itself (as is demonstrated by the vast numbers of people who are desperately uncomfortable at the idea of a strike) and the more the energy is kept up, the easier it is to do it again later, when the stakes *are* important.
