I find the fact that people have been rioting for years now with nothing to show for it is really illustrative why a vanguard is absolutely necessary to achieve any sort of systemic change. Spontaneous action never actually accomplishes anything in the end.
Right, eventually people learn from experience and start to reflect on what they're doing. It's just depressing that we've been through all this already, and people are once again rediscovering what works from scratch.
Could just as easily get heated for a bit then fizzle out. I mean look what happened just a year ago with the raising of the retirement age in France and the resulting mass protests.

Repeated spontaneous action tends to create the vanguard. Or at least legitimize one.

Yeah, but that's what happens when we have our history stolen from us. We have to rediscover everything over and over again until we don't.
