Frankly based on the numbers outright, the most useful thing you can do is murder a billionaire. If it becomes a trend or a meme to do so it's the only thing I can see having any effect. Fear & public accountability is really the only skeleton that holds the body of voting power together. If government & corporations are'nt afraid of their people, then they're not beholden to them.

Harassing politicians can help too! Shit on their lawn. Create a group of political lawn shitters

I only see direct harassment as efficient, or even functional, if it produces fear. Fear is the only thing that influences these people's decisions over money and power. It's really the basis of the people's power. Fear that we'll get too angry.
