    Protesting in the bumfuck nowhere gives no results. 10 people protested in village of 200 isn’t news. 2k people protested in 200 villages isn’t news.

      Disagree… It’s not “reported” as news, but if 5% of a town showed up to a protest, that’s a big fkn deal to the people who see it, and makes them aware that the protest exists.

      Couple of years ago, “mud wisard” made an international news, and it was a protest of a dozen people in an empty village in the middle of nowhere.
