This should definitely be the approach for the first phase of protesting, but I fear this is also missing the part where fascists — including the oligarch owned media — will actively produce and disseminate disinformation to justify their crimes, regardless of how peaceful and disciplined protesters are. I fear fascists will continue escalating to mass murder either way.

Remember “They’re eating cats and dogs” or “kitty litter in schools” or “migrant caravan”?

In the age of disinformation, facing a fascist mass murder, protesters need to be prepared for “peaceful” to turn into Tiananmen square, at which point there’s no reason to congregate around the square anymore; you need to switch gears and go guerrilla warfare. Obviously this should never be done anywhere near a protest. It should never be waged against civilians/MAGA voters, cops, troops, or federal agents. It should only ever be targeted specifically at the fascist leadership, and their immediate senior accomplices. Wasting time or effort on low value targets is counterproductive.
