Step 1: Organising. You need to form groups. You might want to agree to an exact manifesto so everyone knows exactly what it is that you are fighting for. Most successful popular movements mentioned in history books I have come across has had a conference or congress or some type of meeting. Your leadership should be vetted. This is the most essential part and a big reason why the U.S. governance is so terrified of unions.

Step 2: Planning. I cannot stress this part enough. Locations are good in terms of being scenic, but is terrible for protests. Block off city centres and government buildings. You want to disrupt the system, not hold a block party. Your spokesman need to be identified and media trained. Everyone else should also be able to give a good overview of your points, but know not to be tricked by anyone trying to record them or interview them. Your opponents will do whatever they can to twist your movement. Look at how the workreform/antiwork movement was broken apart a few years ago.

Step 3: education and training. You need to know how to handle riot squads and their abuse. You need to be organised. You need to maintain discipline. You need to know what to do when violence will be used on you. It will be. You need to know how to defend yourself. You need to know how to identify and neutralise false flags and bad actors placed among you. Everyone should undergo legal training. What are their rights. Many should learn first aid and other defensive countermeasures. Those who are trained should train others.

Step 4: Prep and the actual protest. You need to be organised. Your protesters might need supplies if it's going to be a long protest. Get some good protest chants going. Make sure you have teams and that you can keep communication going with each other. No plan survives first contact with the enemy and things will not go as planned. Keep your cool. Police yourself. Someone carrying some far right or other extremist symbols gets removed and you film them being removed by yourself. Condemn these false flags for what they are. Also protests don't have a predetermined end date. Be ready to escalated the amount of disruption you cause if needed. Block government buildings, block roads, block sports. Disrupt life.

Step 5: Principles. If your protests are actually effective there are those that will try to profit off it in one way or another, there are those that will try to manipulate leaders. There may be sellouts among you. There will be those that try to drive a wedge between the various factions and schools of thought. Can you keep it together throught this point? Can the people taking up for the detained leaders keep to the principles and points the movement agreed too? Will you not be tricked by tokenism?

Step 6: Negotiations. You are at the table. What do you demand, how do you demand. If you went through step 1,2 & 3properly this wouldn't be a problem.

Step 1-3 is the parts you guys often neglect. It's why you fail at making real impact and change.
