For people who are upset about the chaos of this type of protest, what do you think is a more productive way to oppose them?
protest is an escalation.
people who are upset should push for action from politicians.
Not necessarily to clear them out but to ask them to do something.
The issue is people think the solution is clearing them out by force.
We all know it doesn't work, because it's a patch work that does nothing in solving the root cause.
It will need negotiation at all levels, effective and early enough so things don't get worse. And it will get worse the longer it gets.
Personally I think it's ironic there's so much dislike against these protest when many here wanted a huge global anti vaccine protest.

I think the mental adjustment has been difficult for people. For the past decade, campus lefties have generally been pretty irritating to most people and it's easy to just default into that feeling.
