Like it or not what they're doing is working. People are talking about this more and more. It doesn't matter that they're saying JSO after fucking idiots. Eventually people will be putting pressure on elected officials to do more. So in that sense protest works.
You don't. That's not protest. That's campaigning. Both have their place. Both work.
Exactly. You don't raise anywhere near as much awareness handing out flyers at the racecourse, as you do running in front of the royal horse.
But you can and they have been doing. They've been blockading the entrances to refineries. I've not heard anyone but right wingers and/or climate denialists complain about that. Honestly the pacifism is what I find the most annoying but we don't exactly have the capability or laws to "cop watch" like the Black Panthers did.
