Particularly in the United States, probably not a single day goes by without there being at a minimum a dozen protests by far-leftist radicals around the country, almost all of them breaking the law in on way or another (which law enforcement just ignores, obviously, because there's some kind of very strange two-tiered law enforcement system in the country.)
And this has been going on for over 10 years now. It might be that during Biden's presidency there might have been a few days during those four years that there were no protests anywhere in the country, but even that's unlikely.
The constant daily protesting has a rather unintended side-effect that the far-leftist protesters are completely oblivious to:
When protests are a daily occurrence, it dilutes their effectiveness.
For the longest time it used to be that protests were effective because of the amount of attention that they got. When they were unusual, people paid attention to them. They got press coverage, people read and watched them, the issues raised were discussed.
However, when there are at least a dozen protests going on every single day, for the entire year, for years and years, people stop paying attention. The mainstream media stops covering most of them, because they are just all the same. It's like noise at this point. People stop caring what the hundredth protest this month happens to be about. It's just another protest, a daily occurrence, once again the radical bigots making noise and breaking the law, while police does nothing. It all becomes just white noise, the message doesn't go through, people stop paying attention, even the signs they carry become meaningless drivel that nobody even bothers to read or pay attention to anymore.
And, thus, protests get diluted and lose their power. They only become a nuisance to the locals who would just want to go by their day without being bothered and who couldn't give a flying fuck about what the radicals are throwing a hissy-fit that particular day. The protests only and exclusively annoy, they don't have the effect that protests are actually supposed to have.
Of course the protesters don't care. It's all just performative. They get a fuzzy warm feeling because they are doing something for their ideology and agenda. They literally could not care less what people think about it or whether it has any effect whatsoever: They just want to throw their public tantrums and get the fuzzy warm feeling of having participated. Ironically, 99% of the protestors themselves usually don't even know what the protest is about that particular week. They just participate because they are told to participate, and that's it.
The fact that it lowers the power of protests, and the quality of life of everyday citizens who would just want to live their lives, is completely inconsequential. Maybe even a bonus. They want to ruin people's lives, they hate if people just live normally and happily. They want people to be miserable. And what better way to make people miserable than to annoy people, block their cars and break the law, while the cops just watch doing nothing to stop it. It's perfect.
