I'm unlikely to stop at just praying for tyrants to be ended, although I probably make those kinds of prayers more than most people living in comfortable democracies.

Non-violent resistance is not as passive as most make it sound. I just remembered the name of the book that outlays how much more effective non-violence is against tyrants... Why Civil Resistance Works: The Strategic Logic of Non violent Conflict by Chen worth and Stephan.

Please don't stop praying for them. They need it more than most.

Non-violent or civil disobedient-type resistance is effective, but, I'm not going to sacrifice my life to that ideal since I don't agree with it when it comes to being a martyr. I'd rather fight and live longer than die passively. 🤷‍♂️

I'd rather effectively take down dictators. But I'm learning ways that don't involve self-sacrifice first 😊
