Tadonic the Flautulent<p>Remember: They want you scattered. Your focus is resistance.<br>11/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Build community: Share the cognitive load. Different people track different issues. Network intelligence beats individual overload.<br>10/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Practice going slow: Wait 48hrs before reacting to new policies. The urgent clouds the important. Initial reporting often misses context.<br>9/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Remember: Feeling overwhelmed is the point. When you recognize this, you regain some power. Take breaks. Process. This is a marathon.<br>8/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Use aggregators &amp; experts: Find trusted analysts who do the heavy lifting of synthesis. Look for those explaining patterns, not just events.<br>7/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Set boundaries: Pick 2-3 key issues you deeply care about and focus your attention there. You can't track everything - that's by design. Impact comes from sustained focus, not scattered awareness.<br>6/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>

Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Agenda-setting theory explains the strategy: When multiple major policies compete for attention simultaneously, it fragments public discourse. Traditional media can't keep up with the pace, leading to superficial coverage.<br>4/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* Media theorist McLuhan predicted this: When humans face information overload, they become passive and disengaged. The rapid-fire executive orders create a cognitive bottleneck, making it nearly impossible for citizens and media to thoroughly analyze any single policy.<br>3/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
Tadonic the Flautulent<p>* The flood of 200+ executive orders in Trump's first days exemplifies Naomi Klein's "shock doctrine" - using chaos and crisis to push through radical changes while people are too disoriented to effectively resist. This isn't just politics as usual - it's a strategic exploitation of cognitive limits.<br>2/11<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/nazism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazism</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dontatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dontatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>
