Check comment above. This is a terrible idea. You'll go from 2 stars to 5.
They have sonic weapons. They run over people with horses and armored vehicles.

Cool...
This one goes out to all the small government, privacy loving, Republicans out there, supposedly hating invasive big brother tactics and representing the values of the American heartland.
Would be much appreciated if you could have a word with your people about this.
Follow Hong Kong tactics and use umbrellas to shield from above.

Wait wdym? Not even in the 18th-19th century?
correct, see for example the reactions to the US's decision to invade and seize territory from Mexico, which was largely seen as a betrayal of liberal values that the country was supposedly founded on. Don't worry, the US isn't the only country to justify their revolution with promises of liberal ideals like freedom and equality only to expose their true priorities later (namely giving local colonial elites more power than those ruling monarchs in Europe). I recommend reading the chapter on Bolivarian revolutions from the history book Born in Blood and Fire: A Concise History of Latin America for more about the disappointments and failures of liberal revolutions to live up to their promises.

Just so we're all aware, GPS jammers will invite the interest of the FCC. Now, protests aren't about being well-behaved, but just know that there's an entirely different federal agency being brought in.
Well, the cops are here with helicopters, tanks and militarized surveillance, at this point inviting jurisdiction conflicts while also disrupting enemy wireless communication, that feels like a strategic improvement and imposing another dimension of complexity to failing state organs. From crashing their drones, to spoofing their chain of command to blinding and silencing their recon units, neglecting the electromagnetic spectrum is ceding battlespace to the enemy.

What's wrong is that officers of the law are allowed to lie like that, yet still want to be respected.

Yeah, it's frustrating. We need to end Qualified Immunity pronto.

Is it plausible this might cause the helicopter to crash somehow? I wouldn't want to risk that.
Edit: can't believe people be downvoting this. Y'all have no idea how catastrophic a helicopter crash could be. But if you're downvoting because you think the answer is obvious and I'm stupid, I respect that.

you know what else is illegal?
- sending 500 Marines to quell a civil protest
- deputizing police as ICE agents
- yanking American citizens out of their homes because they aren't white enough
- sending Americans to a foreign prison system without trial
I don't give a flying fuck what they think is illegal anymore since none of them give a shit about the rule of law anymore.
the helicopter is the flying fuck

In lying's defense, they shouldn't be respected when they say that regardless of its truthiness

You're 'spinning the whole time' only if you lose the tail rotor, but in autorotation you're basically gliding, please don't mix stuff up. There are enough misconceptions about helicopters around.
Are you a helicopter pilot? I thought you rotated with power out, just not as fast as you would without the tail rotor. I could be wrong... I only worked on the engines and used them as a passenger. I've only flown sail planes...

No, even in 1776, there were contemporaries who mocked a bunch of rich slave owners talking about freedom while stealing land from native americans. American freedom had always been the freedom for the ruling class to exploit the underclass.

Unless your device is already compromised, that information isnt being logged when the device is powered off so it's kind of moot.
when a large, trump supporter corporation, with its main business being habit and environment tracking based personalized advertising, has so deep access to your phone as it literally builfs the operating system for it, maybe it is indeed already compromised.

Load the foam with Iranian counter interceptor malware and infect the oppressor from inside. Give them spiked ammo.
sounds good, where can we obtain it?

Omfg, fucking this! We need to take that operational knowledge the Ukrainians have gained and use it to fight and kill these bastards. Ukrainians who are smart, can speak decent English, and are entrepreneurial in spirit should consider becoming consultants to smaller partisan organizations.
Sure, they can work with the Hong Kong protesters, Lamas, and Cuban patriots. Maybe some Free Syra Army guys can help too.

Any software defined radio that can transmit on these bands and RF amplifiers.
The ham radio community also has all the information on how to build them out of of basic components, power RF transistors being the most expensive components, but that is still dollars not tens of dollars.
Sometimes ready made gps jammers can be obtained off the shelf from overseas markets outside of the hegemon's reach.
But active protest does require being smart about it. No point in just causing irritation with the population while leaving the enemy able to operate unencumbered.
That means performing observation, OSINT, signals intelligence to understand their system and find their weaknesses.They will have covered most vulnerabilities from their own guerilla warfare manuals so study those and find their blind spots.
Find where they have become overconfident in their hardware's ability. Where they have started taking from granted technologies that remain only reliable in peacetime.Use their systems against them

No no, couldn't have that, would be a shame

a helicopter crash in a populated area has a high likelihood of collateral damage

Put a rock in your shoe too. Gait identification can be shockingly accurate.

To ad to others that already commented:
Brutal colonialism and imperialism, Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Philippines to name only a few.
