Listen up, kittens — fascists want you isolated, scared, and doomscrolling yourself into paralysis. We’re not doing that. We’re building claws-out community networks that can outlast any regime and still have time for snacks.
1. Build your safe pride, not just a network – Mutual aid and community crews aren’t Instagram fluff; they’re survival. Share meals, run bail funds, cover childcare, form queer self-defense squads. These are the lifelines that keep us breathing and fighting.
2. Resist together, not alone – Leaderless resistance is like a cat colony with no alpha — just coordinated chaos. Small, independent cells are harder to infiltrate and still pack a punch. You don’t need a “hero”; you need solidarity.
3. Use the 3.5% rule – If just 3.5% of the population sticks with sustained, peaceful resistance, big change becomes almost inevitable. We’ve already got about 1–2% mobilized. Let’s claw our way to that magic number.
4. Resist online—but also offline – Yes, use Signal, encrypted group chats, and QR-coded street art. But don’t let it replace actual boots on the ground — the regime can’t shut down in-person solidarity with a server outage.
5. Learn from history—and keep your heart – From the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo to underground zine collectives, resistance movements have always used culture as armor. Make art. Archive it. Pass it on.
6. Train in nonviolent strategy – Protests without strategy are like laser pointers without batteries — all flash, no action. Learn discipline, safety, and creative tactics so you’re not just loud — you’re effective.
7. Hope in long resistance, not fleeting revolt – Dictatorships don’t crumble because you posted a spicy meme. They fall when communities refuse to give up, build coalitions, and show up again and again.
