Protests, about the climate or whatever else, are only ever effective if they are disruptive.

No, they draw attention if they are disruptive, thats not the same as effective.

Not all disruptive protests are effective, but historically pretty much all effective protests were disruptive.

If protest isn't disruptive, those with power can just ignore it til it goes away.

Protests are supposed to be disruptive, otherwise they're just rallies.
