Having video game clothing and taking books out of the library is also protective when you are an activist.
It shows that you are mentally active and considerate of the epistemology and ontology of social reality.

Try to maintain a reddit account or some sort of picture account such as uploading public domain pictures on a site like Pexels or Flikr or another site.
This shows that you are not insane, and are not paranoid and psychotically insane since you are willing to put pictures of your environment online.
That said remember that anyone can have mental illness and healthcare professionals also try hard and might also be afraid for their money and the public safety.
@Alice I agree with you there. I am relatively new here so I am wondering if you would be able to follow me please. I am doing an account/blog on human rights and mental health capacity so I would really appreciate it.
I saw the tent and I thought about how it would be applicable for Homeless people and other uses if you ever took it down. (I hope you do not mind.)
Please do not feel any pressure but I would really appreciate it if you would be able to follow me.
Tattoo's are one way to show that you have capacity. A permanent one might be a good idea but be careful of the risks. You can get temporary ones like Henna, sticky ones and glow in the dark temporary ones to prove that you have capacity. Sometimes you can order them in the ward to prove that you have capacity as an activist.
@Alice I did not know that these existed. Wow. I wonder if these can be used to help homeless people.
Always carry multiple phone chargers with you. A money bag or one on your leg might also be useful A social activist needs to have ways to charge their phone.
If you are sectioned as any kind of social or Human Rights Activist or at risk of sectioning always bring a non-plastic bag that is not made of plastic. Plastic ones sometimes get thrown out and you might need a bag to prove you are seen and have capacity to at least collect stuff together and order it in your room.
@nileane Interesting. I do not know much about this.
@foxes_in_love Wow I really love this comic.
@mattsheffield This is interesting. I have never heard of this far-right group. I need to look into them at some point. I have never heard of the fantasy film "2000 mules". I have heard about films and far-right media such as "the greatest story never told” and "Murdoch Murdoch" [https://scholarworks.arcadia.edu/showcase/2020/pgl/10/]
There are many free-speech implications of this on multiple sides. Cartoons and films might provide sublimation dopamine to un-diagnosed far-righters or nazi's with learning disabilities.
Murdoch Murdoch: A Case Study in Threats to Ontological Security in Far-Right Propaganda
Adapting the Ethnographic Discourse Analysis method developed by Stanton Wortham and Angela Reyes this thesis traces the language employed in the ethno-nationalist web series Murdoch Murdoch. While not as widely known as other examples of the burgeoning landscape of far-right internet content such as news sites like InfoWars or Brietbart, Murdoch Murdoch can still reveal crucial details about how far right propaganda seeks to radicalize its viewers. This thesis argues that Murdoch Murdoch uses its visual and discursive indexicals to present a near absolute dichotomy between a Positive Self that consists of white ethno-nationalism, and a Negative Other that includes virtually all other ideologies and people groups. By presenting politics as a choice between these two absolutes and positioning the series’ protagonists as protectors of traditionalism and white identity, Murdoch Murdoch seeks to present demographic changes and social progress as threats to the viewer's ontological security. This thesis then concludes that Murdoch Murdoch’s approach to propaganda is emblematic of methods far-right propaganda has often employed.
