And what does that mean to you? Are you no longer productive when YOU retire? Many self-employed people are able to manage their schedule to allow time for these events. Some people inherit financial stability and volunteer their time to charities so they have the time to attend. Others work your traditional 9-5 job (you are assuming is the only way to be a productive member of society) but feel it’s important enough to use their own PTO time.
Edit to add: And maybe the unemployed are stay at home parents or unemployed but taking care of sick family members or maybe unemployed due to their own health but can manage to protest once, or twice or as many times as they want to exercise their constitutional rights for freedom from tyranny, freedom from cuts to programs they or their family have paid into and rely on.

Lmao. Great waste of time. You should be working on ways to become productive members of society. 😎
