This is a fair point
Liberal fascists everywhere know that the only way to get things done is to preach from the comfort of your home

I'm all for protesting, don't get me wrong.
But only if it's an organised one with real reasons and not just 100 people there because Geldof told them to be.

Also I thought protests went on usually outside the places involved?

it's all about awareness
and making the news.

There will always be people who use protests for their own ends, but to write it off the way you have been makes a mockery of people who died to give you the right to vote, go to university, have a freedom of choice - it sounds dramatic but it's true.

You should take stock of the way you try to force your opinions on others
the very meaning of Fascism
