How We Fight: The 3 R’s
- Renounce: Say it plainly — you reject what they stand for and what they’re trying to do.
- Refuse: Don’t engage, amplify, or legitimize their distractions or disinformation.
- Resist: Speak up, show up, and push back. Disrupt their tactics. Protect what matters.
There’s a 4th R, but let’s act swiftly and strongly now so we won’t need to Revolt.
