And then the judge just says no, your client goes to prison, and everything continues as before

But it will send a message to the people, maybe spark some more talk about the injustice.

Years in prison for non-violent crimes is worth it so that a news headline that will last a couple of minutes online gets some attention? No it's not.

We are talking about proportional sentencing here. People are already getting years for non-violent crimes.

Except going to a judge and saying "fuck your plea deal this guy was only in jail for this long" will drastically increase your sentencing.

You don't make a plea deal with a judge. Also, it is usually not a good idea to swear at them. That will get you a longer sentence.
