In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

Thiel is insane, if he thinks building data centers in Argentina is going go smoother than in the US. Argentinians are very good at mass protests. They will burn his yet to be built data centers to the ground. Besides, looking at Milei’s approval rating - he’s not going stay in office for long.
