So we can organize under the Neoliberals or get fucked...

It's not one or the other. You can organize independently of the neoliberals.

And how much of a chance does that give independent grassroots organizations that don't receive money from billionaires?

You know it's more difficult to go to two different protest events on the few days, you just don't support the things that are necessary to enact change because you are a good serf.

how much of a chance

A non-zero chance. If you have a better idea, I'm all ears. The only alternative I'm hearing is to give up, and that guarantees your chances to be zero.

Protesting is just one of many ways of building the movement. A protest tells you that there are others ready to take action. It creates conversation and an opening to talk to the people around you about it. Being at the protests is always good, but it's not the only way to help a movement.

I'm not sure if I understood what you were saying. Regardless, I think my response makes sense for at least two possible interpretations of it.
