uprising and organizing

1. uprising with a leader
There are two major issues with using a single person as a leader and figurehead of your group.  The first, that they will be subverted from your cause.  The second is that they are susceptible to assassination, threat, coercion, blackmail, and other tactics admittedly used by the government to eliminate movements

2. uprising without a leader but with a panel or group
With this threats to one or more persons may not destroy the group. The death of one or more people may not destroy the group.  However, with this method, agent provocateur taking power or massive criminalization becomes the tools of choice against the organizers. Disagreements over tactics, arguments, inefficiencies, and mass arrests may be expected. Betrayals by individuals who have been members from the beginning can expected, people are ostracized by accusations of subversion, even if no members of the group are agents, they can be framed destabilizing the group and creating distrust. 

3. uprising using pure democracy
Time is wasted, decisions are not made, agents easily derail the system by taking over meetings, making accusations, disagreeing with decisions, and creating chaos.  Without a figure-head or a unified list of demands the corporate controlled media is easily able to misrepresent the movement and purpose leaving the impression of disorganization and confusion. Mass arrests become more impracticable, power is not able to be taken by agents as easily, assassinations are inefficient.

We are at a disadvantage. How can these tactics be fought against. How can suspicion be combated.
