    Seems like people are waiting for somebody to put revolution in front of them as an option they can click on.

    That’s not a revolution, it’s a riot. People get very bold when they’ve got the cover of a crowd.

    Revolutionaries have a much bigger job. They’re trying to mobilize a durable coalition of working people. And plenty of people try to chase that dream. Most just fail. And who can blame them? It’s an arduous exhausting dream to pursue, and not very glamourous, particularly at the start.

    Have a bit of grace. Not everyone is blessed with the knowledge, the talent, and the opportunity to pioneer an economy shifting revolution.
