Sadly, it takes money, time and energy to fight back against authoritarian tactics, and people like Paxton know it. He has enormous resources at his disposal, and isn't afraid to use (and abuse) them, as the court noted. With little negative recourse. How does the little guy keep up the fight? I am fully in it to keep our democracy but it is a David and Goliath struggle at times.
How to stand up to bullies, support whistleblowers and take actions as a coalition should be taught in school.
Thank you for your work!
“When targets of autocratic attacks fight back – and when a broad coalition of civil society has their backs – other potential targets are less likely to engage in anticipatory obedience by taking themselves off the field. Then, in turn, the institutions of democracy are better able to function as checks on abuses of power and disrupt the autocrat’s consolidation of power.”
Still trying to posture as Democracy saviour by rectum sniffing white Democrats after fucking over brown and black Democrats for most of your political life,and career ?

I consider reversing the cycle of “anticipatory obedience” to be the only prerequisite — and the only training — for reversing the cycle of more “anticipatory obedience.”
