With the advent of dictator Donald Trump and his dangerously unstable, violent, egomaniacal personality, the resistance from civic society has not risen to the deadly challenge either quantitatively or qualitatively.
I was listening to a podcast where an expert on revolutions was talking about it.
I think it’s something like, as few as 3% of the population can achieve revolution, but their actions need to be very focused and targeted. It’s a small number but almost an impossibility.
Like any authoritarian regime there’s oligarchs supporting representatives who are supporting the leader who supports the oligarchs with tax concessions et cetera.
Nothing will change until the oligarchs decide that the current regime is not in their best interests.
If you could get 5% of the population to permanently stop using services associated with the magnificent seven, that might be enough. However it needs to be people who are presently relying on their services and they need to discontinue completely, and indefinitely, and in protest. I’m not sure I could convince even 1 person to stop using the services of a single one of those companies. Hell, I’m reliant on microsoft services myself.
It’s a small number but getting that small number to do what’s necessary is almost impossible.
