We need to make it impossible to spin in his favor, make him look like the villain he is at every turn, and deconstruct every pillar that grants him power.

That said, we WILL have to go outside of our comfort zones, and we will have to do more than just protest (but violent riots are out. Besides the bad PR, it'd give Shitler his Reichstag Fire moment.

The tricky part is a resistance not focused on killing the enemy but on permanently removing their ability to function requires a lot of outsmarting the enemy. Fortunately, to quote the enemy's leader: He loves the poorly educated.

Not necessarily. What Scandinavia did to the Nazis during WW2 is on the table. Them and the French resistance did about as much damage the the Nazis as the allies did.

Makes me just want to make my own. I don't want to line the pockets of dictators OR oligarchs.

We need to start pulling citizens arrest on his cronies to force them to obey court orders and force the police to force them to carry them out.

When the law outlaws freedom, only outlaws are free.
And if you reach that point and have to break the law, make sure they can't put it back together again.

No problem, not an issue, I was just expanding on the topic.

As such, we will only be free of this once we eliminate the ability for individuals to accumulate power over others. And that will only happen when we create a decentralized system where the masses keep things in a state of "the only way to get ahead is if we all do."

Because hierarchy always eventually draws people who try to 'get ahead' by accumulating power, resulting in their subsequent oppression of others to keep from losing it to others that acquire it, and the devolution of that into narcissism.

Oh it's not just the United States, although it's most visible now. It's endemic where any group of people have power over others.
Capitalism, Communism, Monarchy, Dictatorship, Electorates, Patriarchy, organized religion, influencers... anything with a hierarchy, whether official or emergent.

Been saying similar for quite a while.

Not sure why the OP called out not dying hair purple, though. Nothing wrong with dying hair; recoloring hair is a super-ancient practice, and has been a way for people to assert their self-identity since forever.

In a lot of pictures, it's hard to tell where the feathers end and her hair begins. It took some hunting, but I think I found a woodstock picture with the feathers out of her hair, looks like she dyed her hair where her feathers went?

Didn't Janis Joplin dye her hair purple?

I'm in the U.S., though I am seeing if I can immigrate to Europe (probably Denmark).

Especially the police responses to respond to Republican congressmen & Executive teams. I mean, those who vote for something should shoulder the brunt of its negatives.
Also, make this well-known to all the populace... obviously so they can organize a volunteer protection for the undefended.

This has been their endgame all along, the ability to 'deport' any American they don't like to concentration camps.

Rock on... (although I've seen plenty of hippies with dyed hair, and that dyed back in the day, too. So might want to walk back that part.)

I'm already to the "Enough is enough" stage.
And my skill is in web & app development with auxiliary courses in socioeconomics and political philosophy.
I'm using this knowledge and building an anti-dictatorship app.
So far, pretty much doing it on my own, though. Need PR & financial support.

Statistically, more wealth only increases your happiness so far. After a certain point, it had diminishing returns, and eventually, has negative returns.
Billionaire losers really need to learn to donate everything past that point to stop shooting themselves in the feet.

So, statistically, there's a 100% chance that if your country elected a trans woman to one of your highest offices, it will be #1 in Quality of Life.
comment in response to
post
For a little added facts, there has only been one trans woman leader in the last 10 years (Alexandra Briem, President of Reykjavík Iceland, a position considered the "second president" of Iceland)
Her country scored #1 on the QOL list, and has remained there ever since.

As a lover of playing Kobalds, you have piqued my interest.
What sources can we get them through?
(FYI, I don't touch Amazon)

Not to mention a massive amount of male culture is one-upsmanship while a massive amount of woman culture is community-building... the latter of which is far better in a leader of a country.
comment in response to

In other words, your country is statistically 23% more likely to be a top-10 Quality of Life country if it chooses a woman leader instead of a man leader.

Ever notice the quality of life in a nation is almost directly proportional to the amount of political power women wield?

I'm actively working on creating an anti-dictatorship app.
Sadly, I'm working on it alone with no support, which means I can't work on it 8 hours a day.
And I'm lousy at PR and acquiring grants/funds/crowdfunding/etc.

Sadistic narcissists like to hurt people, and hate to help people.
