I agree, but at the same time comments like these are as useful as Americans shouting at Russians back in 2022 to “just overthrow your government lol it’s not so hard, here’s some tips on how to stuff a molotov in a tank”.
These kinds of protests and movements won’t make the people in power ragequit, but they are useful for organization and gaining support which will later have to escalate in order to do anything meaningful, with things like general strikes and violent escalation if even that gets ignored.
The question is - will the protesters be willing to escalate? Or are they under the delusion that peaceful protests alone will be enough to destroy an authoritarian regime? Only time will tell.
