Civil disobedience never works without the power structure aligning behind it. The Civil Rights movement, for example, had VERY powerful leftists aligned behind it. It then ate these leftists, such as Stanley Elkins, alive. But it was contained in a major power structure.

Additionally, you can't underestimate the value of having communist Russia stoking the Civil Disobedience flames. This was NOT ignored by the USGov. They forced Paul Robeson, for example, to register as a foreign agent. So, yes CD works when you possess superstructure backing.
