This is why they work relentlessly to suppress any sort of synchronization signal between their opponents; it is effective at making things feel hopeless, and making the resisters feel isolated. Cf Putin, Germany of a certain vintage. The solution is rhythm and trust. You do things regularly and predictably whenever it is safe to do so -- potlucks, rallies -- and recharge trust in those moments, hopefully enough to carry you through until the next one. That is how you resist autocracy.
