Since scholars of authoritarianism like Protect Democracy's experts and Prof Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Prof Timothy Snyder identify that US is now in stage of rapid authoritarian breakthrough, it is crucial that we learn from the opposition's efforts against Orban’s autocratic power grab in Hungary. Our wannabe dictator & the participants in CPAC have been Orban’s fanboys since 2022 for his creation of a Christian ethno-nationalist illiberal democracy. I'm relieved that there is now a new initiative to spread training about strategic noncooperation methods of mass defiance. www.nokings.org/rise has been in progress for a few weeks now with 1,350 trainings scheduled so far and growing.

Thanks, Marie. I've attended multiple protests in the past free months. The link you included sent me down a productive rabbit hole!
