The Supreme Court and the State as a whole may not be legitimate and all that, but if you offer nothing at all to people who lose whatever small protections it offers them don't be surprised when they don't jump onboard a revolution that will never happen.

There's a reason why libs aren't usually swayed by radical leftist posturing, and it's because the Left has no power, doesn't offer anything other than promises to people, and the majority of the Left doesn't even have any practical skills to build alternative infrastructures.

It wouldn't even be particularly hard to replicate tactics that have worked in the middle east in the West, but this requires possibly reading stuff that isn't woke and leftist and getting bogged down in moral hand wringing about the fascist creep or whatever

This isn't really a popular opinion though, which is why it never gains any traction. If the Left offers anything tangible to people, it's an identity, a community, and some hope. That's it.

I really can't imagine most leftists ever taking the life of someone in a revolution. Partly because most haven't even fired a gun and can't stomach this, partly because the people who will react against it are going to probably be the working class, your friends and family even.

It's because this isn't what any of them signed up for. The idea of a revolution is nothing more than an idea, something that is cool to imagine happening but that is always a distant idea. If anything many probably imagine they wouldn't need to do the dirty work, esp tankies.

The whole Vanguard thing protects a lot of leftists, consciously or unconsciously, from even having to actually spill blood in an imaginary revolution. They're too important and smart to do that. Leave that to the proles.

It's all very frustrating because it's really not impossible or difficult to make something happen. It doesn't take millions of people rising up against the bourgs or something as grandiose as that.

We live in an interconnected society run by centralized organizations with pressure points that can relatively easily be exploited by small groups of lightly armed individuals. This is all publicly available or easily obtained information, too.
