Now, more than ever, we need to engage in brilliantly planned and executed dilemma actions.

A #FrogBloc isn't just a wacky idea. It's a proven tactic: "dilemma action"
In Serbia, activists dressed as toy soldiers when the regime called them terrorists. In Thailand, they danced as ghosts.
It makes repression look ridiculous. It's hard to justify soldiers vs a chicken suit.
#DilemmaAction
Spoiler:
Jesus handles the dilemma brilliantly, forcing his critics to choose between walking back from their stance, or publicly declaring that they are without sin.

Are you a prankster, a culture jammer, a trickster, or a chaotic good player? Your time has come! Peer reviewed academic research has shown that dilemma actions are effective against autocrats and dictators. You have transferable skills! Dilemma actions are a form of nonviolent civil resistance. Studies show that when at least 3.5% of the population engages in civil resistance, they succeed. And a dilemma action is one of the most powerful strategies.

It's very hard for me to get my head around this, but but pranksters engaged in #dilemmaaction can overthrow brutal, violent dictatorships.
The actions require excellent timing, design, planning, and implementation.
It all depends on superlative design, planning, and execution. But #dilemmaaction is remarkably powerful form of nonviolent confrontation.
I'm currently fascinated by #dilemmaaction, and the research that documents how and why it works as a nonviolent civil resistance strategy.
Here's an encouraging word: a #nonviolent #civilresistance movement overthrew a violent regime and a cruel autocrat in #Serbia.
Their most #effective #resistance #strategy was #dilemmaaction. Unarmed pranksters won against a dictatorship.
Researchers have documented how and why this works.
It's counter-intuitive, but there are ways we can win this with #nonviolent #civilresistance. One very promising practice in this category is #dilemmaaction. When it's planned and executed well, it works.
Calling all pranksters! This is your moment to step up and lead the #resistance.
This is great!
I'd also like to recommend #nonviolent #civilresistance. When it's planned and executed well, it's surprisingly #effective. One of the most promising practices in this category of #resistance is #dilemmaaction.
Yes, #litigation is an #effective #resistance #strategy!
For those of us who aren't lawyers, #dilemmaaction seems to be the most promising practice in #nonviolent #civilresistance.
I'm really impressed with the academic research that documents how and why it works
We can win this with #nonviolent #civilresistance. The most promising practice seems to be #dilemmaaction.
It's a matter of good strategy and execution.
There's plenty of academic research that documents how and why this works.
On the contrary, there's plenty of serious research that shows how and why #nonviolent #civilresistance works. It's a matter of good planning and execution .
The most effective strategy in that realm is #dilemmaaction. It's counter-intuitive, but what we need is for pranksters to take the lead.
The research shows that #nonviolent #civilresistance is surprisingly #effective. It's more effective than violence, and tends to result in #sustainable #democracy after overthrowing dictators.
#dilemmaaction is an especially #promisingpractice.

#evidencebased
Serious researchers have documented that #nonviolent #civilresistance is not only highly effective, but more likely to lead to #sustainable #democracy.
It's a matter of using the right techniques, such as #dilemmaaction.
The most #effective form of #nonviolent #resistance is #dilemmaaction. So we can increase our chances of success by using that strategy.
It's time for more emphasis on the #nonviolent #civilresistance technique known as #dilemmaaction. It's highly effective.
Check out the research on #civilresistance! It turns out that #dilemmaaction is a highly effective form of #resistance.
I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know what would be for folks in that profession. However, a lawyer who also has talents as a trickster could have a lot of fun with dilemma actions.
I recommend the technique of #dilemmaaction, which is a highly effective form of nonviolent civil resistance.
Calling all #pranksters!
#Performative #resistance can be highly effective, when pranksters engage in the specific technique of #dilemmaaction, which is a form of #nonviolent #civilresistance.
This the time for #creatives and #pranksters to step up and engage in the highly effective #civilresistance technique of #dilemmaaction.
Calling all #pranksters!
This is your moment to engage in the #nonviolent #civilresistance technique of #dilemmaaction.
Calling all #pranksters!
This is your moment to engage in the #nonviolent #civilresistance technique of #dilemmaaction.
Calling all #pranksters!
We need you for the #nonviolent #civilresistance technique of #dilemmaaction.
I recommend #nonviolent #civilresistance - especially the #dilemmaaction technique.
