the tactics will work much better against a centralized organization than a decentralized org; see the Butler section
OTOH, Staeheli (and I very much agree) thinks that it is the charismatic power, and direction that makes the difference in choosing targets
once upon a time, I had academic dreams of getting my own theory published; which I would have called critical point theory. It would have been a combination of "great man theory" and decap strategy.

most people don't matter...zap the ones that do, and cripple a movement

unless the leader is already dead.
Christianity...and Islam...come to mind.
bingo; religious movements are hard to squish
hell, the Jews are still around after 2000 years, and I bet it's hard to get converts since they cant eat bacon or lobster LOL
hmmm.
was the Scientific Method a 'movement'?
Could it be made into one?
I'd say yes...
the Church made it a point to squash it as much as possible before the full power of the printing press came into effect.
The Church used a combination of Info War and arrests...and of controlling employment!
didn't work huh?
or it hasn't worked yet.
from the from what I hear on the news they're still trying
RILLY HARD
to squish it.
honestly speaking, it is the Church of Liberalism that is hard at work against Scientific Method these days!
