part of it is that we are like a disorganised militia that cooperates as a swarm but lacking a chain of command or hierarchy
there is no head to cut off so we are not the kind of opponent that the establishment with their control and violence based systems and institutions can ultimately prevail against
they will go after the biggest and most successful units of our scattered horde but they can't stop enough of us without first somehow fooling us into believing that their small wins are of consequence
