I’d have a look at David greabers interviews on the subject. He was heavily involved and part-mastermind behind it.
Contrary to what a lot of people seem to think, a lot of it was about become too specific in their aims. The powers that be want to whittle away the numbers with infighting. So, they ask the sort of duck or rabbit questions to make that happen.
When they made specific demands, they stopped being a scary, faceless and uncompromising mob.
Theres more too and he’s very honest in his self critique imo.
He’s also pretty candid about how the authorities came up with a bullshit excuse to shut the camps down (claiming health and safety over bathroom conditions when that had been figured out for ages) and then came and beat people up. Big omission
