What is the best way to oppose "clicktivism"?

Asked by FireMadeFlesh (16593points) April 26th, 2015

From time to time I see petitions on websites like Change.org or Avaaz that are worth signing. I never know how much difference it makes, but it costs me nothing.

Other times though, I see petitions on those sites that I vehemently disagree with. Unfortunately, there is no option on the sites to vote down a petition. So the petition is submitted with many signatures, but those of us who disagree with the petition are silenced.

How can I oppose the petitions I disagree with, without becoming invested in campaigning?
