2. Missing the point

I am not scolding individuals, many doing great things with their talents, like you are.
The point is that we, the collective "we" of this country, is doing very little. Nothing at all actually. The collective "we" as a nation, are essentially doing nothing while we send innocent people off to be tortured and murdered on a regular basis.

There should be actual millions of people in the streets, no matter what letter is after your name, fighting to stop this but there is not.

Unfortunately, organizations like the ACLU are becoming less relevant as the courts, specifically SCOTUS, has already ruled this can continue.
Relief from the courts is becoming less and less likely. SCOTUS has become little more than a rubber stamp, they exist only to stop or neuter lower court rulings.
We need only look to the modern French era for advice on how to protest.
We need to make protest uncomfortable. We need to make protest inconvenience people. We need to bloke up roads somewhere with a thousand tractors.
Because if we don't, protesting will become illegal too
