Are protest effective?
many people around the world join in on a protest. It is usually to make a difference, or to open someone’s eyes and show them the problems around the world. But the main question is, are protests effective. I believe that they usually are, because when people protest, the government may realise that this is an issue. However, sometimes, a protest may be violent and this makes people worry more about the violence that the actual problem. I therefore think that it depends on your actions, and if you do the right thing to solve the problem

Thanks for your contribution @clever_iceberg. You stated that when people protest, the government may realise that this is an issue. Can you explain further how the government may realise it is an issue?

Depends what the protest is about, I think.
Thanks for your reply @peaceful_raccoon. I believe you stated that, depending on the context of the protest, the government may or may not acknowledge it is an issue. Do you believe the number of people protesting affects how the government may respond?

I think so, because if you just have one person doing a protest, no one will 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 listen to you unless you are an important person. But, if more people get involved, then more people will notice and make a change.
