Yeah I tend to synonymize "peaceful" and "non-violent" in this case. By your definition, I 100% wholeheartedly agree that a peaceful "protest" is absolutely useless, just pure hippy circlejerking.

However, that's what a lot of people seem to expect out of a non-violent protest and they get angry otherwise.
