edit:
There were plenty of peaceful demonstrations during the American struggle for independence. (example)
Did they give us what we wanted? Nope. The protests happen all the time, but name one instance when it actually worked. Nothing ever gets done unless a stick gets involved. Now we have a nazi billionaire running around with an orange felon senior citizen and the only thing that happens is “please, stop it” but they didn’t even hear you enough to reply back.
The example I linked describes how a peaceful protest convinced the Pennsylvania Assembly to vote for American independence.
Respectfully, I think you are arguing in bad faith.
