If you expect help from the establishment you certainly are fucked.
You work with what you have.
That is absurd. If what you have is not fitted for the task at hand you are just wasting your time.
OK, but here you are, using a GMail address, and presumably nothing to substantively obscure your identity.
It's a bit too late for me to start hiding my identity. And the US hasn't invaded argentina yet =P (though they just might =/ )
Maybe you're not "wasting your time", but you are for sure trusting your environment. And, I would argue, you are limiting yourself to what you can say and do that won't get you fucked up.
Ah, you are talking about things one can personally do online? I was referring in general to tools used to achieve political ends. Like, I don't know, if the only 'official' recourse you have to change a political system is voting, then you better not waste time with it because you will get nowhere. Likewise, expecting an anonimity network provided by the government to be meaningfully useful against the government strikes me as naive at best.
