Most importantly, whether protesting a thing is "dumb" or not has nothing whatsoever to do with the "stakes" for the person who's suggesting the protest is or isn't dumb. The dumbness of a protest does not vary with the person observing the protest. This is post-modernist bull####.

Finally, millions of people just told you they're sick of being told they're privileged, sick of being told they're not adequately racially sensitive if they're not outraged by the Cleveland Indians logo or they're misogynists if they like the SI swimsuit issue or they're awful, subhuman monsters if they don't think that every black man shot by a police officer is essentially a lynching. If you swing the pendulum even further, and double down on those politics, then yes, it's not exactly crazy to predict that we're headed for eight years of Trump.
Millions of people are wrong and should check their privilege, respect all races, be against casual racism, and not objectify women. Life isn't so ####ing hard that these things shouldn't be part and parcel with being a decent human being.
