I've said it before, the political right need to learn how to take casualties.
The political establishment and the Leftists see themselves as being at war with you. Part of this is a war of attrition. Because they struggle to use hard power (literally machine gunning protestors), they use extreme soft power to make you kill yourself.
A lot of the dissident right, even people like Michael Malice, are going to stand there and tell you not to be a martyr. I agree, don't choose to be a martyr (that tactic doesn't make sense for the right). But that doesn't mean you're not going to end up as one. The bad guy gets a choice.
What are you going to do when you run for community dog catcher, and the cops fucking arrest you on your way home from work, claiming they can smell drugs? What are you going to do when you get swatted? What are you going to do when your boss fires you because they got 25 bomb threats in the past 3 days because you said "woman is an adult human female" on Facebook? What are you going to do when the bank won't let you use your account for a month, then abruptly close the account and hand you a check? What are you going to do when your family disowns you because something something TV Man? What happens when your friend gets shot in the fucking head at a rally, and the police drag their feet and don't investigate?
Sorry, 'hurr durr bogaloo" isn't the correct answer. In fact, it's guaranteed to make it worse, and is literally handing the political left the exact reason to double-down and finish the job with the hard power they were waiting to wield. After your dead, they go after the rest of your friends and family the same way.
The answer is, you go make sure you have all the supply you need to go right the fuck back out the next day and keep fighting.
In order: if the cops arrest you, already know an attorney you can trust, and know how to use your right correctly. If you get SWATed, make sure the cops know that people are targeting you. When the bomb threats come in, already have a good relationship with your boss so that he see's you as more important than the bomb threats. If you get fired, already have been looking for a job at trusted organizations. Already have cash and gold set aside if the bank pulls something stupid. You should already have a strong relationship with your good family members so they don't trust TV man more than you, and if you don't cultivate it. And if someone gets shot, and there's nothing you could have done to prevent it, you mourn for the night, you go right the fuck back out and protest the next day much more loudly, and you don't let anyone claim "gun violence" or "political extremism", you let everyone know the media asked for an assassination because they support terrorism on behalf of the establishment.
Preparation is how you get strong, and Stoicism is how you stay strong. Use your God as you need to. See Psalm 23:
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
At some point, you will walk through the valley of the shadow of death. So long as you live your life in truth, are not dissuaded by lies; and you follow a righteous path, not being tempted off by sins including that of wrath, you will eventually find the benefit of your righteousness laid out before you to the dismay of your enemies.
Yeah, you know that whole "hard times make strong men" thing? What you will one day face are the hard times, and that is how you will become the strong men that everyone will need to rely on.
Learn to take casualties, prepare yourself for the pain, and keep pushing through the darkness.
