Yeah don’t they know about the free speech circle that exists on the other side of town underneath the freeway overpass next to the river? That’s where protests belong!
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.
An acceptable form of protests not only gets the message across but wins people over to your side. Meanwhile you seem to be claiming that any publicity is good publicity, as if anyone is unaware of your message, and don’t care that you’re alienating the people who could be helping you
People in power want people to be apathetic and uneducated. Any protest that reminds people how fucked we are, and that there is this massive looming problem that the people in power are doing nothing about upsets the people with power.

Again, how this protest reminds the people in power?
The people in power want the general population to be apathetic and forget how fucked we are. So any protest that reminds them of the problem hurts the agenda of the people in power.

How warning the general population will bother the people in power?
If you want to bother them you should go to them, not some random bikers.
Yep, OP’s agenda is succeeding: there was no message getting across, no support gained, and I’m purposely avoiding finding out what their organization is so I don’t have to avoid donating/helping
This is a common occurrence in recent years by leftist groups. They have no bloody clue how to get their message out and connect with people that they make absolutely boneheaded moves. Moves that typically make these people look worse than if they did nothing.
There were environmental protesters in the US a few months back who stopped an entire highway. So now you have dozens or even hundreds of cars just idling there which is the worst thing to do for emissions. There have been similar protests before, but what really struck me with one of the protests was that there was some guy who was driving to meet his parole officer. If he was late to the meeting for any reason, he’d get thrown back in jail. The guy was pleading with these people to move to the side and let him go and they wouldn’t budge. What a bunch of absolutely douchebags. These moves do not endear your audience to your cause, for fucks sakes.
Then there are groups like PETA. People of all races and cultures love animals, and yet these clowns find a way time and time again to turn people away from a cause that should otherwise be a homerun. Who wants to see animals being abuse? No one, and yet with the tactics these guys pull, they turn off more people than turn onto their organization because they always focus on the wrong things.

Fucking Koala brains. If you cant even be bothered to TRY and understand the point of the protests, then at least keep your mouth shut rather than polluting the world with your ignorance.

Don’t support these protesters.
Yeah why don’t they know their place, where no one will notice them???

How do you protest something without inconveniencing anyone in the process?
Tell me how these protests are upsetting people with power.
They downvoted you because they have no answer to your question.

Are you even reading the comments I’m posting?
I am, don’t see any valid reason.
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.
Yep, OP’s agenda is succeeding: there was no message getting across, no support gained, and I’m purposely avoiding finding out what their organization is so I don’t have to avoid donating/helping
Noted! I will go burn a few tires to teach them.
