    Look deeper. There have been underground resistance groups that have formed and taken action using new tech to organize and communicate.

    With those tools and groups in place, and with their practice using them to organize group action, they are in a key position to lead more overt resistance operations going forwards… As well as provide guidance and support to other groups that form in other areas as they naturally will.

    A similar get up to the underground railroads and zines of years past, that, in those days, provided platforms for organization, expansion, and brought up the historical resistance leaders we can still read about today.

    Those leaders and actions don’t just pop up and happen spontaneously, even though it may appear that way when you only read about them and the outcome of those events in history classes.

    There’s a whole process to the buildup that has often taken years, sometimes decades, but can now occur much quicker due to our modern resources.

    When, or if, a time comes when the scales tip and people turn to more overt action, the systems needed to ensure they are noteworthy will already be in place, I assure you.

    There’s no need to rush it ATM.

    Haste makes waste, as they say.

    But there’s always a breaking point, and we vary well may hit it.
