English term or phrase: stuck a well-deserved pin
Si parla dei movimenti di massa nei primi decenni del ventesimo secolo.
Maybe those movements have **stuck a well-deserved pin** in the sides of the rich and powerful, and the rich and powerful have responded with a campaign of slander, nattering on about evil.

Si tratta semplicemente di critiche o è qualcosa di più concreto? grazie
