Think of it like an annoying advertising campaign where even if you don't like the advert now you are more likely to be aware of the product.

- irrational 8y agoBut if the campaign truly is annoying, couldn't it make people more aware, yet also more likely to side in the opposite way the campaigners intended/desired?
- smhost 8y agoSure, if you're morally depraved. But then you were never going to care about the injustices of a police state, so who cares where you stand.
- maym86 8y agoThis is a common argument used to detract from protests (I'm not saying you are using it deliberately). People ask why people have to be so distruptive and question the methods to move from the issues and focus on the individuals. Why can't the protest just be a little more reasonable and acceptable to them. Even though the only acceptable protest to the questioners would be one that didn't happen and caused zero disruption. Protests are intentionally disruptive to get attention. Otherwise they wouldn't work and news reports and stories about the issue being protested wouldn't be made. We know this protest worked because we're still discussing it.
- TeMPOraL 8y agoOf course it could, as we've seen with PETA many times and as the Critical Mass is continuously proving.
- euyyn 8y agoI think it made that final even more entertaining than it was already being.
