Well…over a million marched in London to put a stop to Brexit and it didn’t do anything. Considering this conflict is even less so under the control of the British government I’m not sure what this march will do a damn thing.
So tired of "protests are useless" posting. There are good ways to make a critique of a movements but this is not it.
The past decade around the globe protest movements exploded into radical restructuring of various countries' way of governing. This particular protest doesn't seem like it will evolve into that, but no one ever predicted the outcome of past eruptions.
A protest isn't a reliable or advisable way to create a revolution, but they are still great organizing opportunities and solidarity building events.
Please stop with the nihilism
