One group of protestors makes awful points, so I judge them to be engaging in pointless and risky behavior. The other side doesn’t, so I’m much more supportive of their protest, even though there might be associated risks. As long as I don’t call for the first protest to be made illegal this is a perfectly consistent argument. Sometimes you have to look at the content of a protest to judge if it’s valuable or not. And it’s perfectly ok to judge a protest as not being valuable.
