That was sarcasm mocking the guy pushing “direct action”.

The meaning of "direct action" is wide open for interpretation

bert called for, "direct action"
action that seeks to achieve an end directly and by the most immediately effective means (such as a boycott or strike)
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/direct%20action

"example, revealing an existing problem, using physical violence, highlighting an alternative, or demonstrating a possible solution"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_action

I don't see anything

I catch myself wanting, even pushing for direct action. As recently as 2 days ago when they started putting up covering over the fence at the Maricopa County Election HQ - I was livid, and thinking that it was time to rush the place.

I have no idea what motivated them to do that, but things have since settled down in AZ and here.

It's my short fuse - I generally keep things in check, but every once in a while, I reach a point where I have to spew out some anger. That was one of those times.
