There's nothing any of us can do about it individually. But collectively, we still have power. It's a matter of organizing into collective action. This is a political issue just like any other. When the vast majority of people don't want something to happen, we have the power to stop it if we act. I'm not the one to make that happen; there are much better people for that. What I'm saying is how we speak about the issue should be one of agency, not of resignation. Agentic attitudes are contagious, just as defeatist attitudes are. Perhaps collective action on a small scale can spontaneously organize out of it. Or the right people might see enough people poised to act to be the organizing force. None of this happens if we admit defeat before shots are even fired.
