MODERATORS
What other methods of direct action do you propose?
Fire.
How about protests at the headquarters of the most polluting companies?
And how will that disrupt things to the point of getting their attention?
Go inside and do "stuff".
Depends on how you protest.
If you won't care about the issue because it's too inconvenient to think about it, then the issue must become more inconvenient for you.
Protests are not about quietly holding placards and being easily ignored. They're about disruption. If you're not being disrupted, you get to ignore the protest.
That's why I protest by walking into people's homes when they are at work and shitting in their kitchen sinks. Then I leave a pamphlet explaining climate change next to it. They think about climate change while they clean it and change their voting patterns the next day I imagine.
