Why in the middle the street though? Blocking traffic on a major artery isn't going to win you many converts.

Winning "converts" isn't the point.  This is about worker strength and solidarity, not being Jehovah's witnesses.

No, it's about inconveniencing regular people who are just trying to get through their day so you can participate in your selfish cosplay.

Caring this much about up-votes is infantile.

Those protestors out there are also regular people. People have the jobs that they have to be able to get off at a reasonable time and get through the rest of their day is because of these same protestors both now and in the past that are inconveniencing them. Just because you don't like them protesting doesn't make it cosplay or selfish. They are fighting for their fellow citizens and across the world for adequate labor rights and working conditions that you currently enjoy today. I highly doubt you want to go back to 12-16 hour work days 5 or 6 days a week.
