Is getting a news story all that matters for an “effective” protest? If so, you must think blocking traffic is an incredibly effective protest strategy.
I think news stories or any media is one of the most effective things, but it has to be a sympathetic news story. Holding up business of Ratheon - good news story; holding people in their cars on the freeway - bad news story.
What do you think is an effective protest?
I think the most effective protest would be one that directly acts against what they’re protesting against, like putting traffic cones on self driving cars or the Tyre Extinguishers deflating tires.
But that kind of protest doesn’t really apply to sending billions of dollars worth of weapons overseas unless you want to do something very illegal or violent. So whatever the people protesting think will help seems good enough to me.
But do you understand how the freeway protest pushes me further away from them, but the one in front of raytheon pulls me closer?
