It’s almost like they are trying people to hate on them so oil companies can get their way.

Don’t support these protesters.

It's almost like the media is trying to make people hate them so oil companies can get their way.

Don't support these companies.

What's the "acceptable" form of protest in your opinion? Literally anything they do gets an article about how wrong it is, because they are trying to upset those with power.

Yep. Years back the Occupy Wallstreet protests were really gaining traction until corporate media decided to go to the camps and find the most insane examples of people to interview to represent the protest as a whole. The whole thing crumbled shortly after and Wall Street is still ~~ruining~~ running our lives to this day.

Tell me how these protests are upsetting people with power.

They downvoted you because they have no answer to your question.

No. That's what people like you do who don't even understand the context of the protest.

Edit: And OP, who's likely doing this intentionally to spread his agenda.

I find this so silly. I feel that all this does is make people mad instead of getting them aware and informed on what they’re protesting about.

The men’s road race wasn’t temporarily interrupted. When a race is interrupted, it’s done for good because you lose all the positions and momentum.

You're not watching the race are you...
