Self-promotion is crap. You can claim that to dismiss any protest. It's easy since you don't need any proof. Amnesty has a protest outside an embassy of a country holding innocent political prisoners? "Bah... self promotion". It's bullcrap, but you have a nice built-in reason to dismiss any protest. "The organizers are just using it to gain publicity".
As for big oil's control of government... you don't think the greenhouse gases has something in there? IT'S THE WHOLE REASON!!!! They want the government to do more about CO2 emissions!! But they don't...
If it were not for the greenhouse gas issue, they wouldn't have been there today.
