I don't know, I still want to do something but I don't think street protests are enough. And I am against violence.

With Ukraine I donate money, early on I donated for buying drones. With Palestine it's so bad that I think donations won't reach them.

Source: I grew up in 3rd world countries where pacific protests for teachers salary are common place but won't solve anything. I've also lived in another 3rd world country with strong unions where at least once a month there was a 1000 people protest in the main street in the capital, plus ad hoc protests that are much bigger, and that country is still sinking very fast.
