Outwit, Outsmart, and Overcome

The Rebel’s Playbook: A How-To Guide for Resistance now available in digital!

Here’s a sneak peek from my book, The Rebel’s Playbook: A How-To Guide for Resistance. I dive into the stories of women who’ve gone toe-to-toe with authoritarian regimes and lived to tell the tale (and sometimes win). This excerpt gives you a taste of the step-by-step tools you’ll need to build your squad, protect yourself, and make sure the fascists don’t get the last word—because, spoiler alert, they absolutely won’t.

Welcome to Fascism—Here’s What’s in Store

So, you just voted (or didn’t vote) and somehow ended up with a fascist leader. Congratulations! You’ve won a front-row seat to the decline of democracy. Maybe you’re wondering, “What’s next?” or “How bad can it really get?” Well, honey, buckle up, because history is here to spill the tea.

Spoiler: It’s not great.

Fascists are a reactionary force deployed by elites to crush revolution and maintain the status quo.

The Fascist Playbook

Fascists have a surprisingly predictable playbook. It’s like they all went to the same evil dictator summer camp and came back with matching merit badges in "Controlling the Courts," "Co-opting the Military," and "Organizing Roving Gangs of Thugs to Terrify Civilians." Oh, and let’s not forget their flair for fashion—after all, what’s a good oppression without matching uniforms and some ominous hats arm bands?

Women are the First Line of Defense

And don’t think for a second they’ve forgotten about you, darling. Fascists love a side project, and restricting women’s rights is their pièce de résistance. Whether it’s draping you in gowns and bonnets à la The Handmaid’s Tale, stripping away your property rights, or dragging you back to a "traditional" role (read: barefoot, pregnant, and silent), your fascist ruler is cooking up all sorts of ways to curtail your life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Outwit, Outsmart, and Overcome

But don’t despair just yet. Knowing their tactics is the first step to outsmarting them. This guide is your survival manual—part history lesson, part resistance strategy, and all unapologetic sass. We’ll cover everything from identifying the warning signs to building your own personal toolkit of defiance. Because fascists might have a playbook, but so do we.

Ready to turn the tables and fight back? Let’s do this, and remember: resistance looks good on you.
