Step eight: Creating new cells.

Flocking together when need be, flying solo when we ought to be...

By now you are a well functioning revolutionary cell. You are organized around a strategy. You are a small, tight-knit group of individuals capable of quick consensus, swift planning and efficient action. You have developed a circle of allies working together to accomplish the same goal everyone in the Occupy movement is working towards, ending the economic inequality destroying the world today. Now is the moment where you make your most important contribution to the Occupy movement; Spawning a new revolutionary cell.

Chances are that as you've been working with your allies you've noticed at least one individual that is highly motivated, energetic and passionate about the Occupy movement. You're first instinct is to think what a great addition to your revolutionary cell this individual would prove to be. Adding them to your cell would be not only be a selfish decision, but a bad one at the same time. Your revolutionary cell is doing just fine, you don't need to expand your group. The smart decision is to approach this individual, explain how your group got started and then hand them a copy of the strategy guide. Let them know how good you'd think they'd be at forming a revolutionary cell of their own and then work with them on understanding the strategy guide and then executing the principles outlined in it. Once they understand how to implement the strategy turn them loose to organize a new revolutionary cell around the strategy.

The idea is to increase the strength of the Occupy movement and not the size of your group. By spawning new cells you help to implement the strategy in it's truest intent. The idea is to have many small cells working independently together to create a never ending storm of pranks that
will drive authorities crazy trying to figure out how and when Occupy will strike next. Many cells organizing and executing pranks on a continual basis also prevents authorities from focusing large numbers of their forces on a single large group at any one time. This is the key to our victory, not building large groups of people around process. Large groups move slowly and ponderously, small groups are faster and harder to contain.

In the illustration above I have attempted to show the strength of the Occupy movement. Each bird represents a revolutionary cell consisting of four or five members at most. When necessary we can all come together as a single flock, but on a daily basis we can all survive independently as individual units fighting the good fight and working towards much needed social change. The strategy works. I've seen it work before and if properly executed it will bring victory once again.

(Once you have helped in training an individual to understand the strategy and sent them out to form a new revolutionary cell, proceed to step nine.)
