Reminds me of the quote attributed to Gandhi, but incorrectly:
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win"
It doesn't matter who said it, I think it's fitting. They're fighting and they're losing because you can't bully everyone forever.

@sj_zero @Unacceptable US labor activists were pretty radical until their movement was gutted by Taft Hartley.
"Nicholas Klein, a trade union activist, said something similar in a 1918 speech, saying, “First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you,” according to a transcript from the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America convention."
