@wdlindsy@toad.social"Authoritarians want us to feel hopeless and helpless. It’s up to us to show them that we will not submit quietly and that we believe in struggle and collective action. Like Sen.

"History shows us, over and over again, that ordinary people have immense power. Regimes that look invicible can end up being houses of cards. The appearance of power doesn’t always translate to actual power. …
Tomorrow, April 5, everyone has an opportunity to show up in person, protesting what organizers “the most brazen power grab in modern history.” It’s for all of us."
