This is a flippant comment, but let me try a serious response.
If you want to start an armed struggle, you need people who are willing to die in that struggle. You need people you can trust to not immediately get everyone around them killed. You need money, you need equipment, you need an organization that people will trust with their lives. You need a strategic plan (what is your end goal, what are the steps between it and attacking some base), you need a million different tactical plans (which base? how are you going to get into it?). You need a high degree of agreement among your members on all of the above.
All this doesn’t materialize out of the ether. It comes when you have sufficiently desperate people try peaceful change first only to discover it doesn’t work. Then the people and organizations that were radicalized by the crackdown on peaceful attempts have at least the start of all those things you need for an armed struggle. There’s no shortcut for this.
