Ok. I'm too chicken shit to actually show up in person to one of these protests.

What's the next best thing I can do to meaningfully help?

I've gone to protests and stayed near the edge/outskirts so I can feel the vibe and keep an eye out to leave if it feels bad at all. You could do that if you wanted to try it out. I think massive popular protests are usually fine, it's the smaller ones that are more risky IMO.
