On youtube I see tons of avatars and mentions of clippy, the oldscool windows help tool. Are they protesting something?

As I understood it, the message was more about that if you want to start a grassroot movement, people need to see they're not alone, that there are others out there who feel the same. Make clippy your profile Pic and see it pop up everywhere. Power through mass. Treating the status quo then comes naturally ;)
