Very good point

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not discounting a mostly-“peaceful” (as in non-violent) revolution as something that can happen. My issue with this idea is that I feel like the US is, like you said, very different from anything ever dealt with before. Specifically, the systems in place. Could a toppling of the government in the vein of the February Revolution happen? Yes, absolutely. But I find it hard to believe the beast would just roll over and die. The US already has a chain of command in place in case the central government is destroyed, and even if there was no central leadership, I can’t help but feel that the military and the second military (police) would fight back.

I suppose this view is also influenced by my belief that there’s simply no way the military could be turned to even be neutral towards socialism. That belief is certainly being tested right now as discontent about dying for Israel grows, but I still think if something happened, the military would either splinter into a bunch of fash factions that all bomb the fuck out of the commies, or be firmly on the side of the Greatest Economic System. I fully recognize this might be informed by some lingering USAmerican brainworms about the “power” of the US military, though.

Very open to hearing counterpoints to this (though I think saying this might not be necessary? I’m not used to online platforms where good-faith discussions happen )
