    Literally the 101 of looking presentable and being a public speaker: Don't look like a crust punk, know your audience, and speak confidently.

    I don't get how people keep reinventing the wheel when it comes to this shit. Like we can literally look to past figures of our movement and see that the most successful members, be they Z Forester, Debs, Hall, Newton, and so forth, all dressed and spoke the part of "professional Revolutionary".

      And I think there's a happy medium between "look like you've got your shit together" and "everyone should dress like country club failsons." There are many different styles people can put forward that will help them get taken seriously.

          Yep your average joe will get sketched if you go around in a fitted suit, but will be more amiable if you're in a similar but a bit nicer clothes style as him. Rural folks tend to appreciate more rustic style work clothes, don't want them too clean or dirty though. clean means you don't got soil under your nails, dirty means you're just a crust punk
