They've done actual studies that show these protests are counter productive, blindly supporting anything just because they claim to support your cause is incredibly dumb.
In this world there are a huge amount of people who really, really, really like attention and will insert themselves into anything to try and get it, they'll use any excuse to 'boost their profile' especially if they can pretend to be some form of hero along the way.
The idiot who got shot in the capitol and the idiot who threw soup on the painting are the same unthinking attention seeking type of idiot, the right pretend they're breaking into the capitol to save children, the left try to ruin people's day in the name of climate change - then on their respective sides a whole host of idiots cheer and say 'I'm supporting these brave activists so I'm not part of the problem, I can continue to live my life exactly as I chose - safe in the knowledge that cheering on these idiots is enough'
If you believe there is anything you can do about this. Then you are naive. There are almost eight billion of us. We have an immense industry. People not worrying about things like that is normal. Because they are to busy feeding there children. Trying to live a little.
Also why do people think that you can stop climate change. The dice has been rolled. Alea iacta est.
