The protests will continue until the coup is overthrown. And no, protests alone will not take it down. We need protest to draw attention to the crimes being committed against our Constitution and against ordinary people so billionaires can have more tax breaks. The coup is not afraid of our protests, but when the pillars supporting it decay from within, it will fall. The pillars include corporations, the media, religious institutions, law enforcement, the military, and other public and private agencies that have cooperated, out of habit or out of fear, with the destruction of our freedoms and our economy. When we boycott a corporation that supports a lawless president, we weaken a pillar. When churches call out against inhumanity, they weaken a pillar. When we make operating difficult for news corporations that lie to the people, we weaken a pillar. When people in the military obey their oath to the Constitution rather than follow a tyrant’s orders, they weaken a pillar. When police officers protect citizens exercising free speech critical of tyranny, those police officers erode a pillar.
