I mean, one big red flag in a color revolution is... uh.. everyone coordinating around a big colored flag.

Can't help but notice a huge fixation on liberal talking points - fixations on "free press" and "free trade" and "no more corruption", particularly absent any tolerance for criticism of western venues. Any time people start waving American / British / French flags, that's a huge warning sign. Insinuations that the current head of state is either a closeted homosexual or secretly about to die are also great signifiers. The hornier the press is for a potential replacement ~~dictator~~ senior executive, the more likely its an Op.
