First, we need to collate our knowledge. What do we know of the workings of Madagascar, both in terms of governance and the actual processes that are involved in daily life?
+1 to that.
Also we need to scout out our prospective "base" area - how close is it to soldiers? how potentially dangerous? how coherent (structural integrity)?

Hello fellow rebels! I am a rebel much like yourselves! I am eager to overthrow the government and perform terroristic acts against an innocent population in order to achieve this goal! Perhaps you can tell me about our current plans, goals, and on-going activities in full detail? I am particularly interested in the locations, times, and people involved.

Down with authority! :D

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

I am
so tempted to 'port this to the out-of-context thread

...

...but that would be tasteless
I will refrain

Sorry for the late update.

You attempt to bring together your knowledge about Madajiasijia.

It is a colony under direct military rule by the East Asian Army. A large army is stationed in the capital and in ports, composed mainly of conscripted and brainwashed natives, with a significant minority of immigrants from the rest of the East Asian Federation, in which the conditions aren't much better. You don't know the details, but at least here the surveillance network isn't totally all-encompassing. As for daily life... most people wake up early, go to work in factories, the army, or the fields or mines, all with horrid conditions with little to no safety regulations, then go to sleep in tiny, cramped apartments. Education and recreation are very scant, mostly limited to primary and, in the capital, secondary schools, television with only two state-run channels, dry and yet substanceless books (for those who can read) and boring movies laden with obvious propaganda. This depressing rhythm of life is only sometimes interrupted by American bombs that are often launched indiscriminately at population centers, taking dozens of lives.

Your base, such as it is, is located on the outskirts of the city in the basement of a bombed-out building that the government didn't care to demolish or restore. It is far from most "reeducation centers" (that double as police stations and torture camps), and thus soldiers passing by are rare, and nobody ever really goes inside the building besides stray animals. Thus it is fairly safe, with one note: It might partially collapse if the building itself or a nearby factory is bombed, though a full cave-in is unlikely.

Search for (and hopefully find) the weakest joints in our base. Once we do that, gather some construction materials from bombed-out shells and whatnot. Once we do that, attempt to reinforce said weak joints with said construction materials.

Petition the Government for permission to peacefully protest.

I need everyone to sign this petition, please - make sure you include your full name and home address.

I think it could be summed up as Reinforce weak points in our base with materials from nearby bombed out buildings
and I +1 that.

Don't worry, they definitely would come if we did a peaceful protest, go check with them, but they are a bit shy  so they would probably say they won't.
