It goes to show that even a small protest is meaningful

If enough people just made lots of small protests all over the place, even a thousand ten person marches, eventually government would have to listen to the people

I fail to see how this forces the government to do anything really.

It might change the calculus enough in that direction to be impactful, but that's about it. They're servants to capital, not us.
