Authoritarian Regimes are propped up by institutional pillars: Business, Media, Labor, Faith, Education, Civil Service, Military/Police.m, etc. Enough noncooperation will cause a pillar to be unreliable or completely defect. Each times pillar institution yields to or supports the regime, the regime grows stronger. In contrast, noncooperation — refusing to do what is expected, disrupting the normal course of events, and withdrawing support from unjust or illegal policies — weakens the regime, cracking its power foundation. - What pillars am I a part of? - How are they upholding the regime? - What kind of defiance is currently underway in them and what could more look like? - Who are key decision makers in them who could be influenced, pressured, or persuaded, to support more noncooperation?
