You say self defense like you’re fighting off a mugger. Your facing government backed thugs not street thugs (they wouldn’t need to cover their faces if they weren’t doing something wrong) physically resisting isn’t going to do you any good. Maybe you make their jobs a little tougher for a little while, but they will go back to work tomorrow and you will spend a few days, maybe weeks in jail or get shipped off somewhere if you survived.
You are out numbered and out matched, self defense classes aren’t going to do you any good, no half measure is going to do anything. It’s entirely up to you if feel the need to resist and/or feel the urge to become a martyr if they come for you, it’s your choice.
If you feel the need to act, your best options are to join an activist group and/or support government leaders that you feel could help. Because in the end you’re either going to be standing in front of God or a judge, you won’t be physically fighting back in any meaningful way.
physically resisting isn’t going to do you any good.
Well at a certain point that may be the only option and human history is mostly examples of us failing to appeal to our better nature. Longer we wait do do things that physically stop these thugs from doing what they are doing, the longer this goes on for.
Fear is what’s going to make them stop acting like thugs, they don’t fear the consequences of their actions. The person giving them orders don’t fear the consequences. Learning hip toss or judo chop isn’t going to stop a group of fearless thugs.
But you’re right. If reason is lost and the people that are sworn to protect do nothing then logically that is the next step, it’s sort of written into the Constitution and Amendments because our founders dealt with this sort of thing and the abuse of power.
