I imagine it’s also pretty important the number of people that would accept or tolerate as opposed to actively fight against the revolution.
you need the girl reading this 😘
People have done the math. About 7% of the population has to be committed revolutionaries (ie, ready to pick up a rifle if absolutely needed) or strong organised support networks (ie, ready to go to jail.) About 20-30% have to be fellow travellers in some way.
I suggest reading Guerrilla Warfare by Che Guevara. He answers most of your questions in that short book, much better than I could in a comment section. And it has valuable insight in tactics that I think every leftist should know.
