A protest that can be safely ignored isn’t a protest, it’s just a circlejerk where slacktivists gather to congratulate themselves about how virtuous they are.
Actual protests are disruptive, by definition.
But a protest that can't be safely ignored is a choice to destroy the country, apparently
Well, as JFK said, a nation that makes peaceful protest impossible makes violent protest inevitable.
It doesn’t have to destroy the country, but if it comes to that…you can’t say nobody warned you.
Well yeah. Imagine we couldn't ignore a protest against democracy. What would that even mean?
