The problem is that it challenges the "status quo" in way that many find ignorant, misguided, flailing. Those that have fond teenage or college memories of the 60s (which I don't) would appreciate the protests, megaphone speeches, and drum circles. But to me, I'd find these people much more intelligent if they were meeting on their own regularly and quietly and sending letters to their senators, becoming engaged in politics and running for office.
