Solidarity denotes the unity and mutual support among individuals with shared objectives, crucial in protests for reinforcing collective resolve. Protests are strategically held in high-visibility, disruptive locations to maximize impact and draw public and institutional attention. This disruption compels acknowledgment of the issues, leveraging collective action to catalyze societal and political change. In contrast, low-visibility protests are often ineffective as they fail to generate sufficient public awareness or pressure for change.

    Maybe, I don’t protest. Most of the time, I consider them a waste of time.

    I prefer focusing on things that I actually have control over.

    I have no control over “those in power”. Whatever that means. Just like I have no control over you. But I do vote during elections when I can.

    I’m too busy building my own business, working, taking care of myself and the people that I love.

    Whatever you’re actually trying to achieve by protesting, I always assume there’s a more effective and productive way to go about things.
