Well, yeah. Whether the protesters are misinformed or not is irrelevant, they are seeking to highlight their grievances.

You can't very well claim that people should only be able to highlight grievances that they personally, individually and without any external influence ... came up with themselves.

A grievance is still a grievance even if it was brought to the protestor's attention by a foreign power, by a local politician, by their neighbour or by the invisible green elves who live at the bottom of the protestor's garden.

1. You don't get to gatekeep that a grievance is valid only if it comes from the right[1].

2. You don't get to gatekeep that any and all grievances from the left[1] are automatically invalid.

3. You don't get to gatekeep that some things are legitimate grievances and others are not. If 1000 verified working-class people with jobs are literally peacefully protesting, maybe you shouldn't be feeling threatened?

[1] Switch the words 'left' and 'right' in this comment; the point is the same.
