By the way, not that I'm in any way advocating anything at all about it, but there absolutely is an "official manual" on the subject of "civil disobedience". It has gone under various titles but it is now 169 years in print and is best known under a title not supplied by its author... ta-DAH... (are you sure you are ready...) Civil Disobedience. I'm referring of course to an essay written by Henry David Thoreau and first published in 1849.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, and THERE ARE RULES FOR CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE.

However, I'm only talking about Civil Disobedience at all, to make it absolutely abundantly clear that I DID NOT bring that subject up, nor have I ever advocated civil DISobedience... only civil OBEDIENCE.
