It’s why I stood to be arrested on Friday, and why I wanted to write to you today; to encourage ongoing, collective resistance in this long tradition. This repression will continue unless we demonstrate massive and popular opposition... You need not get arrested, but we must fight back.
Remember this guy? Why a 73 year old Jew had himself arrested in Brisbane

He didn't "had himself" arrested, he was arrested by fascists protecting other fascists.

He deliberately wore 2 items of clothing that he knew would lead to his arrest. He may not have literally arrested himself, but he definitely set himself up to be arrested.

Yeah reading his history of activism and standing up for human rights is inspiring.
