Okay lets take the civil rights movement. Incredibly disruptive and even violent at times, albeit usually in response to violence. Rosa Parks for example sat on the front of a bus and got arrested. She didn't move. She stopped a bus and all the passengers on the bus until she was arrested, nobody critisises her because some people were late that day!

Highschollers trying to desegregate school needed armed guards to just get in the building. They didn't go "dang! Best hold up a sign outside, don't want to stop others learning"

Many performed sit-ins. Sit-ins take up space and make it hard for others to use the space for its intended purpose.

They were very disruptive and people hated them for it. It wasn't only speeches and marches.

Women sufferage involved arson, women learning martial arts and beating people up, vandalism, and sex boycots, once again not just speeches and marches.
