It’s not just about power. For many, it’s also a way to keep score, to feel better about themselves compared to others. (Not trying to justify; it’s still a sickness.)
I take it you weren’t at these protests. At the one in my city, the end of the protest march had tables and tables full of resistance organizations signing people up to get involved, handing out fliers on ways to do more than wave cardboard signs, etc.
In many ways, protests like these are onboarding for the resistance.
