Voyons donc comment sont déclinés ces trois principes dans les scénarios…

### Premier scénario

Si je le résume en : « Restez assis dans une voiture et soyez témoins d’un suicide sans rien comprendre » (principes 1 et 2), qui pourra me contredire ?

*Le ratage Greenberg (partie 1)* : Une campagne linéaire et frustrante

Oui, je suis brutal dans mon jugement  . Je viens de mener cette campagne durant à peu près un an (une quinzaine de séances).
Je partage ici mes impressions.

Avertissement : je m’adresse à des personnes ayant lu ou connaissant cette campagne. Ce qui suit dévoile des éléments importants et avec des détails peu compréhensibles pour quiconque ne sais pas de quoi il retourne.

On Thursday, I, along with some 4,500 others, tuned in to one of Indivisible’s weekly Zoom meetings led by Indivisible founders
#Ezra #Levin and
#Leah #Greenberg. There are about 1,600 local Indivisible groups scattered around the country
-- and more are springing up each day.

“Throughout history,” said Levin, “there has been no solution to creeping authoritarianism other than all of us — mass, broad-based organizing from people all over the country, from all walks life.”

“If your ideas are popular and you have a mandate for change,” Greenberg said
“you do not hide from your constituents.
We are the ones who are out there,
who are unafraid and organizing and showing up in public because our ideas are popular.
When people hear what we have to say, they want that, not them.”

The April 5 protests are meant to be a show of strength.

“‘Hands Off,’” said Greenberg, “is a message about everything that is happening, right?

It’s hands off Medicaid,
hands off our democracy,
hands off Social Security,
hands off our environment,
hands off veterans benefits.”

Now, for those who think that firebombing Tesla dealerships is a better tactic than nonviolent protests,
I would remind you of the world-changing work of Gandhi and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

And I would also tell you about the work of Harvard political scientist #Erica #Chenoweth and her colleagues.

To Chenoweth’s surprise — shock, actually — she discovered that over time, nonviolent protests are far more successful than violent ones.

Between 1900 and 2006, she says, campaigns of nonviolent civil resistance were twice as successful as violent campaigns.

She also came up with the so-called 3.5% rule:
No government can withstand a challenge from around 3.5% of its population without accommodating the movement.

In Avant-Garde & Kitsch, Clement #Greenberg clung to the idea that high art was a noble fight against the tide of mass-produced garbage. But his elitist handwringing only underscored the real problem: mass culture always wins. The moment high art starts looking over its shoulder, it's already toast.

Andy #Warhol didn't just blur the line between high & low culture, he threw it in a blender & hit 'liquify.'
