    The whole “revolution” thing is the next big bullshit capitalist’s media are selling to the masses. In history, breaking down any shitty a democracy has always, ALWAYS, paved the way to a even worse tyranny. We have to fix what we got.

          You may need to study history. Revolutions happen in the real world. And they’re not always left-wing (cf the American revolution, which was not motivated by left-wing ideals).

          Some succeed (French revolution), some fail (Paris commune). And history also happens after those revolutions.

          They are truly different things. Revolutions are very real and not the end of history as we know it.

            Also, not all revolutions are violent. Ask the Czechs and Slovaks. As far as I know, they aren’t living under a worse tyranny.

            The meaning of my statement is basically that the online leftists talk about the “revolution” like Christians talk about the rapture. An apocalyptic event that will fix everything that’s wrong with the world and create utopia. In consequence, both groups talk about their chosen apocalyptic event without actually doing anything to improve the world. Of course its not all Christians and leftists, just the bottom of the barrel of the respective groups.

        The shittiest democracy will always be better of tyranny, we need to fight for our rights, not to destroy the ONLY MODEL OF GOVERNMENT IN HISTORY who has even worked in favour of the population (as shitty as it is). Also stop voting “Rich Cunts” as president would help.

            Did you know what is a very easy way to control and exploit large chunks of a population while ensuring that said popolation don’t unite against you? Give them shitty reasons to fight between themselves and be divided while you get fat and rich. Race/ gender/ religions… bla, bla, bla. Meanwhile the 1% fuck up the planet and steal both ours and future generation’s welfare.
