Luigi allegedly made healthcare CEOs very afraid all on his own. Coordination with others in these things is a liability, not a strength. All the examples you listed required violence or the threat of violence to overwhelm the violence projected by the state. There's always only a few dozen people directing the state's violence. I'm sure you can see the shortcut to the same ending.

How long did that last?

Coordination with others in these things is a liability, not a strength.

Based on what evidence?

There's always only a few dozen people directing the state's violence.

How do you expect to outsmart or overwhelm the state mechanisms of violence protecting those people, or the people that will take those people's places, without coordination? How do you expect your resistance to go on indefinitely, and not fizzle out as soon as the state gives away the smallest concession, without an organized struggle to spread and sustain it?
