Each side in this conflict has allies among members of the intelligence community, a billionaire or two, and powerful media outlets. Only one side in addition has control (imminently) of all three branches of the government and control over state legislatures where a majority of Americans live. It seems that disparity would tip the scales of which side is the 'resistance'?
Anyway not much is resolved by figuring out which side is a resistance, trying to resolve it definitively is like resolving a kaleidoscope, which in turn makes one susceptible to superficial narratives or whims. Even iron-fisted Stalin could say he was really the underdog against global capitalism; nothing was gained by those who believed him. Much better to insist on interpreting who's in the right based on accuracy, principles, and consequences.
