Not 75%, just 3.5% is needed (probably).

"The 3.5% participation metric may be useful as a rule of thumb in most cases; however, other factors—momentum, organization, strategic leadership, and sustainability—are likely as important as large-scale participation in achieving movement success and are often precursors to achieving 3.5% participation."

I feel like this needs to be underlined. Leadership figureheads, especially ones who can delegate or inspire others to act as sub-commanders, would be huge.

Unfortunately, it's hard to communicate and organize hierarchy in the climate we're in now.
