Whether it or not you think it works
protesting is about raising awareness of an issue. The only thing its forcing you to do is to listen to an opinion. In a democracy politicians are slaves to public opinion, so if a protest gets enough support it can actually (deep breath ... dramatic pause) ... make a difference.
Also, saying "you're a fascist" is somewhat like the "yeah, well you know who else did that... THE NAZIS" argument.

Cynicism isn't enough for sure...
but neithers pious protests... a BM/RAF approach is far more effective I think, and if against senior bankers would be as popular as the original German group.
