1. Strengthen Local, Real-World Community Networks

Authoritarian systems thrive when people feel isolated. The most powerful counterforce is dense, trusting, local networks.

  • Neighborhood groups

  • Worker organizations

  • Faith communities

  • Mutual aid networks

  • Local journalism circles

  • Community education groups

These networks become the backbone of collective action, information-sharing, and resilience.

Why it matters: When people know one another, they’re harder to manipulate, harder to intimidate, and far more capable of coordinated action.
