"Some activists might wonder what the point of protesting is If it has no impact on success There is, however, Another way of looking at structuralism That is invigorating rather than paralyzing Assume that human action, the form of protest or organizational style Has no significant impact on whether a Movement will succeed To recap, all that matters is that a contesting group exists prior to And continues Protesting during, a world-historic crisis Let's go further and propose that the outcome of the revolution Is not up to human will, and therefore total Inaction When the Food Price Index exceeds 210 will have the same chances of hastening A revolutionary victory as action Now what do you do to change the world? How do you act? A few people may Choose to do nothing Twiddle their thumbs and just wait for the revolution to happen The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche However, once observed that a person would rather will something than nothing And I Suspect the majority would Still choose to act And if choosing a tactic based on effectiveness is not possible Because all forms of protest are equally effective In a purely structuralist world view, the best course of action would be to choose the tactics With superior secondary benefits If protest can't hasten revolution, activists are free To protest in ways that bring happiness or vibrant Community Or beautiful art What do you do when organizing a global march Painting an urban murla or feeding hungry people during a World crisis have equal chances of sparking social change? You choose the action that speaks to you The action Most authentic to becoming yourself This possibility gestures toward how new tactics come into being spontaneously ANd it helps us understand Anomalous protest tactics such as the Ghost Dance of 1890 A prophetic circle-dancing ritual performed by Indigenous people in North America That originated in a bid to hasten the return of their sovereignty The Ghost Dance was explicitly understood by its participants as a ritual with political consequences The dance was effective Enough to warrant being violently suppressed by the US government A rational voluntarist would be hard pressed To explain why dancing in a circle far away from cities would be a threat to a government A structuralist activist, However, understands that a protest does not need to target authorities To be effective, it need only be recognized As Protest at the right time"
