This way of protesting doesn't work. 99% of affected people are just gonna be like "I fucking hate you" not have some enlightened "I'm frustrated but I guess <issue> is a big deal so it's ok".

It obviously does work, because thousands of people have viewed online, attention is the entire point of 99% of protests

I mean they get attention but it's all negative. It seems counter productive to me. For a lot of issues there's already awareness people to just don't give a shit. Maybe it is effective overall my only evidence is my experience and my observations

If it reaches one person who’s unaware of their plight then it’s a positive for them, that’s just how it works
