Rule 13
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
Identify key figures enabling authoritarianism and hold them accountable—turn public opinion against them personally, making them liabilities to their own side.
comment in response to
post
Rule 12
The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
Protests alone aren’t enough—offer clear policies, solutions, and leaders people can rally behind.
comment in response to
post
Rule 11
If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.
Expose corruption so thoroughly that even its supporters must distance themselves.
comment in response to
post
Rule 10
The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain constant pressure upon the opposition.
Build sustained movements rather than one-time protests—consistency is key.
comment in response to
post
Rule 9
The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
Create uncertainty and unpredictability—make authoritarians constantly react rather than control the narrative.
comment in response to
post
Rule 8
Keep the pressure on. Never let up.
Constant, multi-front pressure forces mistakes and weakens the opposition.

post
Rule 7
A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.

comment in response to
post

A good tactic is one your people enjoy.

comment in response to
post
Rule 5
Ridicule is human’s most potent weapon.
Mock authoritarian figures mercilessly—tyrants fear being laughed at more than being opposed.
comment in response to
post
Rule 4
Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
Hold them accountable using their own stated values—demand “law and order” be applied to them, expose their hypocrisy on democracy and justice.
comment in response to
post
Rule 3
Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.
Force authoritarians into debates and confrontations where they are weak—highlight their hypocrisy, contradictions, and incompetence.
comment in response to
post
Rule 2
Never go outside the expertise of your people.
Stay focused on issues people understand and can rally around—don’t let the movement get bogged down in complex, inaccessible messaging.

post
Rule 1
Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
Leverage perception to create influence—mobilized communities appear stronger and more unified than they may actually be.
