When you hear about protests in the news, do you feel inspired to act, and how does that look for you?

I have to see what it’s about. If it’s a march about housing or Palestine then that’s inspiring and making a positive difference. If it’s Ireland is full or plastic patriots then it does me head in and embarrasses me.

Depends what the protest is for, sometimes it scares me if the protest is supporting something that is degrading other people and disregarding peoples basic human rights

I love to see people standing up for what they believe is right, especially if it is somthing I agree with. However, I doubt I would publicly protest, more voicing my opinion in speeches or debates where my voice is guaranteed to be heard and listened to.

Yes. Social revolution is a must in order to change the current system we are under. I currently promote the rights of Palastinians and believe fascism is on the rise and must be stamped out.

I think real, genuine protests are important and a key feature of a functioning democracy. However stuff like throwing tomato soup at a Van Gogh painting is just a testimony to once lunacy and does nothing but harm your cause. You need to argue with logic and facts and not with emotions and rage.

I do, and it looks like i have the capacity to respond.

I don't think protests do anything anymore. Social media is the only way to get egotistical and power hungry politicians to listen.

I do like to see people stand up for a just cause and I wish we dine it more often

Inspired by protests, I might engage in advocacy efforts, raising awareness about the issues on social media, among friends and family, or within my community. I also prioritize participating in elections as a way to influence policy changes and support candidates aligned with my values.

I feel inspired to go to protests and to engage with said topic. If you don't make a bang, all people will hear is a whimper

I support the right to peacefully protest by raising awareness of issues. I do NOT support interfering in the daily lives of others by blocking traffic, intimidating women outside abortion clinics or vandalism during riots.

If the protest is unaggresssive and harmless and just experssing a point im okay with it.
