As we discussed a few chapters ago, we too often base our activism on the idea that we need to have a mass movement to overturn this wretched system. But Germany suggests the exact opposite: that overturning the system is the prerequisite to a mass movement. Even years after Germany’s defeat, the great majority of Germans did not think resistance would have been justified. Only after the Nazis’ authoritarian grip had been broken, and only after years or decades had passed, would the German people understand why resistance was not only acceptable, but needed.27

I can only believe that if there is ever a mass movement against those in power, it will happen after civilization collapses, and not before.
