It takes more than months to do anything. The civil rights movement you're referencing took decades.

Protests against this neonazi flavor of right wing extremism have been happening for decades. They haven't accomplished shit. To the contrary, things have gotten considerably worse. The protests are ignored. The protests will continue to be ignored so long as they're just noise.
