What I like about this strategy is that it encourages difficult, out-of-the-box, 10x+ creative thinking.
Are there historical examples to learn from?
Is this strategy especially effective depending on where in the Overton window an issue is at?

I’m an Alice.
It sucks. My life is suffering. You wouldn’t believe what’s been done to me the past four years. Kicked out of YCombinator? Banned from HackerNews? Bank accounts frozen and money stolen? Thrown in jail with no charges? All of those things sure, but those are pinpricks compared to the truly beyond-the-pale cruel thing they’ve done to me.
My X is ~ delete all IP laws. High bit is they weaken minds and local communities and unless you are wealthy are far worse than people understand.
I’ve been an open knowledge activist since 2004, when I was 20. Mostly participating here and there with some guerilla projects.
But the conspiring against me didn’t start until 2021.
That’s when I began to non-anonymously try and shift the system using the resources I had accumulated.
I’ll give it to Bob and Charlie—they hit me and hit me _hard_. I thoroughly underestimated their capacity for cruelty. I didn’t think people would stoop that low.
An Alice has to be patient, non-violent, believe that the truth will set them free, and after a loss willing to go back to the drawing board until they have a strategy that Bob and Charlie can’t stop.
I’m a carpenter now. Good people, honest work, and I don’t have to compromise on any principles.
But because I won’t abandon X, the conspiracy against me continues, and I endure the worst kind of suffering day in and day out.
To have allies who, even if they disagreed with me, could fight for me and say what they are doing to me is plain cruel and needs to stop, that would be nice.
