I thought that I'd listen to 30 seconds and scroll, but I'm really glad I didn't. Really solid argument, but it's got a "last mile" problem, and that's gotta be on us to figure out I think.
The question at the end where he basically ignored and didn't answer was "so how do we do this?". THAT is the question. I'd love to hear that answer.
Step 1 - raise awareness.
Step 2 - gather active participants
Step 3 - collectively do legal things that make life harder for anyone with the power to enact this, yet does not.
Step 4 - repeat Step 3, making it clear why this is happening.
Step 5 - make memes of the affair to further drive engagement.
Step 5.1 (potentially American/Russian/etc Exclusive) - get declared a terrorist for doing a perfectly legal thing.
Step 6 - build support structures and tools to mitigate consequences.
Step 7 - keep going anyway, in spite of what consequences can be brought.
Step 8 - ~~profit~~ build incremental victories to bolster the movement.
I lol'd and cried 5.1 because it's so spot on
