    No one will like the outcome. Revolution almost never results in a better living standard in the lifetime of those involved.

    That’s not to say it’s the worst course of action, just recognizing the down sides.

      You’re right ofc. But almost every radical change in the world has come from revolution, because rich powerful people don’t listen to, or even see, the struggles the people face.

      Who can afford a revolution? What revolution in the last hundred years actually resulted in an improvement? Seems like a path to making everything worse.
