"We are not powerless." After documenting 55 instances of authoritarian overreach, that's not naive hope—it's pattern recognition. When communities organize against Christian Nationalism in schools, they WIN. When activists pressure Palantir, surveillance contracts get canceled. The tools work.

"We're not winning yet." I refuse to sugarcoat. But here's what's also true: movements involving 3.5% of the population in sustained action have been overwhelmingly successful in bringing about change. The protests are growing. Republican defections are starting.

The Insurrection Act isn't random strongman theater. Chicago, Portland, Memphis—test runs for something larger. Each unchallenged overstep becomes precedent for the next. That's the pattern. But also: Illinois officials challenged federal deployment. State resistance matters.

Actually, I feel music becoming more and more important. It's a big source of inspiration. With what's going on in the world, we feel almost desperate. Music also brings you peace.

Imagine your city council votes to end surveillance contracts. Your state passes laws with real enforcement blocking ICE data-sharing. Courts rule algorithmic enforcement violates the Fourth Amendment. None of this is fantasy—it's already happening in pieces. Berkeley. Active litigation.

You can't fight what you don't understand. That's why I spent 10 articles tracing Christian Nationalism from Doctrine of Discovery to the Seven Mountains Strategy to book bans in your local school. Ideology + infrastructure + power grabs = authoritarianism.

A year of investigating surveillance states and theocratic movements taught me: they need more than ideology, they need tools. And tools have weak points. Palantir responds to shareholder pressure. Christian Nationalists lose when parents show up to school boards.

San Francisco's license plate database was searched 1.6 million times—19 searches tied to ICE. California's "sanctuary" laws didn't stop it. What's happening where you are? Has your city council discussed surveillance contracts? Have you seen local data-sharing with federal enforcement?

Here's a question that might make you uncomfortable:
If a religious movement explicitly aimed to control your child's education, the media you consume, the government that rules you, and the businesses you work for... would you call that freedom or something else?

Berkeley did it. Sustained community organizing pressure got their city's Palantir contracts canceled. Not federal lawsuits. Not waiting for elections. Local people showing up to contract renewal hearings until their city council couldn't ignore them. That's the spark that lights the fire.

A year ago I bet that thorough research could help us fight authoritarianism. 55 articles later: we're not winning yet, but movements hitting 3.5% sustained action NEVER fail. We're getting close.

"I'm a citizen, surveillance doesn't affect me." Tell that to the three U.S. citizens detained in Houston because Palantir's algorithm flagged their workplace. They showed birth certificates. Passports. Didn't matter—the system doesn't check citizenship before recommending enforcement.

Is protest a duty or a right?
The No Kings movement frames protest as a constitutional duty—a way to protect democracy itself.
