As GP said, protests are scenarized. It looks like good protests are successful, but other protests are just delegitimized by inserting violent people in them and not arresting them.
In France, countless pictures of pallets of bricks being delivered to demonstration sites in the night before the protest opposed to the leading party, in addition to criminals not being arrested, should at least give you a doubt on how much the “bad vs good” show is artificial.
Many legitimate protests from people who actually are minorities in their nations, were put in bad light and you never heard of them.

It has uneven success. > countless pictures of pallets of bricks being delivered to demonstration sites in the night before the protest opposed to the leading party Do we know those pictures were legitimate? Countless pictures on the Internet doesn't mean much. > Many legitimate protests from people who actually are minorities in their nations, were put in bad light and you never heard of them. How do you know?
