The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

We - even we here - hold the power, and bear the responsibility. In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free -- honorable alike in what we give, and what we preserve. Abraham Lincoln (Annual Address to Congress - December 1,1862)

Just watched the doc, Resistance — They Fought Back, on PBS. One idea presented is that living life through acts like feeding the hungry, teaching and learning, and cultivating art were forms of resistance. The Hebrew word for this is, "amidah" - even trapped in the Warsaw Ghetto, amidah persisted.
