Follow Hong Kong tactics and use umbrellas to shield from above.

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.

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.

the helicopter is the flying fuck

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

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.

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.

sounds good, where can we obtain it?

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

Brutal colonialism and imperialism, Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Philippines to name only a few.

They'd come kill you for that.
