        I would argue the @womensmarch inspired more women to run for office. And the recent ACA fight has included successful protest as a tactic.

        The need for instant gratification and lack of patience is what's been wrong for the last 30 years, and what's destroying us now.

        Do the math. How fast did things change with the protests during the civil rights movement?

        The essay doesn't say protesting is fruitless. The Civil Rights movement worked because it was so highly organised and had strategic vision.

        This is a very different description to the kind of unproductive, chaotic protests we see today.pic.twitter.com/dq1BnPpx59

        I will say it again: How many failed attempts happened before the more structured, strategical ones happened? Years.

        Yes, protesting is nothing close to a riot. Protesters don't carry milatery guns. They carry signs, they chant, they cry,laugh,talk to all.

        Demonstrations ought not replace the long, hard, slog of lobbying our reps. to do the right thing.

        The main point of protesting is to provide TV and photo coverage for lazy journalists to write simplistic articles

        We turn out in the streets on the weekends - ie, when it's convenient. Monday-Friday we're slaves to corporations to pay bills.
