Looking at US politics from across the pond, there seems to be a healthy dose of activism, except it's exclusively online.

Unfortunately nowadays this is totally irrelevant, because it's so easy to counter by anyone with money to burn.

When people have actually gathered (mostly unions) they have found success.
