I agree that common people need to do more organizing, but all that organizing will be a waste of time without a hierarchy. I've seen it happen loads of times. You get a bunch of people together with a lot of passion, but nobody can decide on an agenda or a plan, and all of that energy evaporates and nothing gets accomplished.
Occupy Wall Street
The cops, media, and oligarchs were organized. The protesters, though numerous, were not.
Exactly. They couldn't even decide on "one demand", which was the original impetus.
