What are your new mechanisms for change if you won't engage with democracy?
Demo's can have an effect and it's patronising to say they've been ignored. Hunt couldn't ignore the junior doctors (without political cost) for instance. But demo's are not new. You're not occupying or closing down businesses that benefit from unjust policies. You're not informing or educating anyone.
Flash mobs? You don't effectivley utilise these (FoE did yesterday outside Barclay's branches).
Hacking?
Feeling badass in a mask?
Reenforcing some hoody stereotypes in the mind of Daily Fail readers?
