What are the negative sides for civil disobedience?
Well, the whole point is the ‘negative’ side. By disrupting government, service or business then attention must be paid. Obviously this annoys those just trying to get their jobs done or those just trying do what they need to do. So, by design, civil disobedience is disruptive and annoying. It sometimes escalates into violence. It sometimes creates a backlash where the very thing being protested is made stronger. This intended downside is magnified when the protest is mis-applied to issues that aren’t real injustices or people don’t care about. For example if a handful of people who don’t like right turn on red took to the streets and blocked intersections they would just be annoying people and endangering themselves.
