That’s one opinion.

A protest should be speaking to those outside of the cause. Many see radicals as arrogant performers, only gaining the attention of those already in the fold, and discredited by those outside of the cause. It can drive the people we are trying to reach further from the cause.

And when they complain about it it provides the opportunity for those supporting the cause to explain it to them.
