The fact is, any kind of active rebellion, as opposed to trying to change the system from within as an elected official, would require very careful public relations, especially given the fact Atlas would control the official media to a large extent. Remnant had already had a large international group turn to violent actions, in ways that lost them the support of their own people. Now, I admit we only have a small sample of examples, but the way they were targeting the Atlas military in ways that only hurt them financially, while encouraging local businesses to boycott the military, makes me think Robyn had paid attention to the mistakes of her predecessors.
