Death From Above

Most people do nothing. Determined revolutionaries establish structures and organize logistics towards an end. They try to build systems that will survive them, as they will soon be killed by drone strikes. Their coalition consists of groups with overlapping motives but also disagreements, so strategies are built upon fragile common ground.

We hear of leaders periodically picked off by missile strikes while they perform their job. That means either an informer or a signal interception revealed the location of an informer. It also means the strategy of defeating revolutionaries is to kill leaders, thus it is essential to track and identify oppositional participants so they can be blown up. It is also cost-effective to fire missiles at suspected individuals and locations, as well as maintain a fleet of drones and other air support to shoot at people who need to be removed.

If you are sufficiently inconvenient to the system, you will be removed.
