It's OK if we differ on whether one should attempt to constructively influence the current administration, or not.
But I have to strongly disagree with you on the other half of what you're saying. If your rights are being trampled, or the physical well-being of your loved ones is being directly threatened -- as is the case with those being denied access to health care, or who find their long and meticulously planned applications for asylum are suddenly throttled -- then yes, demanding that their rights and physical well-being be protected is the only responsible and dignified course of action you have available.
And on top of that -- it's the only way people have ever won and safeguarded their rights, throughout all of history.
