You are trying to compare These protests with the ones in HK, well, there are two diferent cases, in HK the protestor's intention is to literally fuck the Chineese goverment by destroying stuff. And the strategy that's happening in Catalonia is mostly to make sound in order to make the European nations react, while we can argue if this is useful or not, this is the strategy that has been followed, The cases where the protestors burn trash cans is mostly to stop the police from beating them.

Maybe if they would collect signatures and show it into the faces of politicians to do something (since the protestors don't want to actually do anything really) that would worth more effort.
These protests are making independentism grow, before it was like 48% of people who supported independence, but now its like 58% so there's that
