    Protesting every day might be less effective without economic disruption going with it.

    That’s just the nature of the news cycle, we’ve had over one mass shooting a day this year and it’s not as much news as 10 years ago when they were much less frequent.

    If it’s always happening, it isn’t news.

    All of that said, there’s other ways to protest that don’t need to be news. Like out front of ice buildings. When you see ice harassing folks, disrupting them, recording them etc.

      Protesting every day might be less effective without economic disruption going with it Ideally there should be a general strike, get the workforce out in force, this administration only cares about the bottom line, once the billionaires start feeling it then maybe. Unfortunately I don’t think this is possible in todays America, for various reasons including size, reliance on work for health reasons, etc etc etc.
