Publisher: The Anti-Authoritarian Playbook (Scot Nakagawa)
Date Published: June 11, 2026
Relevant To: Protest safety / anti-repression resources; data center protest campaign (July 18)
Verification Status: Verified

Notes: Detailed tactical framework arguing solidarity is “risk architecture” rather than sentiment — the mechanism that determines whether people act under authoritarian pressure. Covers financial solidarity infrastructure (legal defense funds, rapid-response funds, mutual aid, movement insurance), legal solidarity networks, institutional mutual defense pacts, witness/amplification networks, and psychological/community solidarity. Includes an escalation curve for how solidarity needs change as pressure increases. Highly practical resource for BPA and coalition partners prepping for increased state pressure around the July 18 data center protests.
