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.

It's counter-intuitive, but what we need is for pranksters to take the lead on #nonviolent #civilresistance.

#Dilemmaactions seem to be one of the most promising practices.

I'm impressed by the rigorous academic #research that documents how and why this is an #effective form of #resistance.
