No, it is very likely that it won't backfire. If you look throughout history, for every anti-establishment movement that succeeds, they're are many many more that are curbed in various stages. History has selection bias which may suggest that anti-establishment movements do well. It has happened a lot of times, but if you look at the probability of an individual movement, it is very low. My prediction is that this will only make the establishment much stronger and they'll be able to curb even more dissidents way before they become a thing.
