His family didn’t even know anything had happened until a reporter from the AP called them. No one from the feds, the state, or even the hospital tracked them down. We have a total breakdown on pretty much every level of authority.

To stop an authoritarian leader, one must begin by reclaiming dignity. Power feeds on isolation and fear. It weakens when people recognize themselves as a collective force bound by shared purpose. The struggle is not against a single figure, but against the habits of silence and resignation that allow domination to breathe.

The first act is consciousness. Speak plainly about what is happening. Name injustice without ornament or apology. Truth, repeated with courage, erodes the myths that authoritarians depend upon. Education is not passive. It is a daily discipline of learning, teaching, and refusing the comfort of ignorance.

The second act is organization. Lone voices are easily crushed, but communities endure. Build networks rooted in trust, mutual aid, and shared sacrifice. Let no one stand alone. When people care for one another’s needs, fear loses its leverage and obedience loses its reward.

The third act is moral resistance. Withdraw consent wherever possible. Refuse to participate in cruelty, corruption, or lies, even when refusal carries cost. Authoritarian systems rely on ordinary people performing extraordinary harms as routine tasks. When those tasks are denied, the machinery stalls.

The final act is persistence. There is no single day of victory. Freedom is built through sustained pressure, ethical clarity, and patience stronger than repression. An authoritarian leader falls not when confronted by rage alone, but when faced by a population that has learned to stand together, think clearly, and act with unbreakable resolve.
