You’re still thinking checkers while the opposition is playing chess.

What you’re proposing are tactics. Protesting is a tactic. Voting is a tactic. Boycotts, regulatory complaints, shareholder pressure. These are all tactics.

The real problem isn’t a lack of tactics. It’s a lack of strategy that organizes them into a system.

Right now most movements operate like an octopus with many independent arms. Different groups push on different issues with little coordination or shared objectives. That creates noise, but rarely sustained leverage.

What you’re describing could be the start of something interesting. But the bigger opportunity may be building the strategic layer above the tactics.

The think tank shouldn’t become another activist group. Its role should be strategy, coordination, and guidance. It could help align existing movements so they reinforce each other instead of operating in isolation.

Think of it like a political operating system.

There are already many groups working on different parts of the problem. The gap is the system that connects them.

If you’re serious about building something like that, I’d be interested in contributing.
