A quote from our zine Survive the Tyrant! "The regime’s most loyal allies are the ultra-rich. Authoritarian regimes depend on the support of billionaire oligarchs and their businesses. Those businesses depend on all of us to be their customers. Many social media networks, newspapers, and other media organizations are owned and controlled by individual billionaires. As much as you can, avoid supporting billionaire-owned businesses. Be wary of anything you see on a billionaire’s social network or newspaper. If you can, cancel your accounts with them entirely."

A frosty mug of beer, which is what we're going to have now that's all done and I can go back to reading the people who are good at getting in front of the public
