    And maybe, just maybe, the protesters should have a goal of not only getting their message out but winning people over to their side. Maybe a goal of gaining support.

    I don’t think this strategy of “annoy as many people as you can” will succeed in gaining any positive attention

      It’s literally the only strategy that has ever worked before, other than outright violence.

      After all, who gives a shit about “positive attention” for its own sake? What matters is actually effecting change, and that does not require people to like you.
