I'm with you. I get this is a protest, but I don't protest gun violence against kids by parading them down a firing range. Taking up the whole road can result in you getting hurt, it doesn't matter what should be our what your ideals are. It's a road for cars and behaving like this increases the chance that someone gets hurt.
On top of that this does what every protest that interrupts traffic does, makes people dislike you and your cause.
"I don't protest racial injustice by going to a segregated lunch counter. That could get you hurt."

Oh look, a second baseless comment from you using racism as a weapon to silence people you disagree with.
Do better. Be better.
Lightor, 1960:
Yeah I get it, people who disagree with your are Nazis. It's called a thought stopping technique. It allows you to dismiss my view point without having to think about it or engage with the content of it, which would risk you having to change your world view. It's much easier to think you're always right and claim anyone who disagrees with you a Nazi.
You don't live in reality with the rest of us bud.
It's a metaphor
