Book cover: 2020 BROWN DEMOCRACY MEDAL WINNER PRANKSTERS VS. AUTOCRATS: WHY DILEMMA ACTIONS ADVANCE NONVIOLENT ACTIVISM SRDJA POPOVIC WITH SOPHIA A. MCCLENNEN
After reading research on how, when, and why #nonviolent resistance is successful, I've come to the counter-intuitive conclusion that we need brilliant pranksters to lead the #resistance.
#dilemmaactions
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.

The research indicates that exposing even the most brutal and violent #dictators to ridicule is quite effective. (The difference between shaming and ridiculing is subtle.)
Apparently, well planned and executed #dilemmaactions have a high success rate. They make dictators look like idiots.
