No true revolution happens because of some arbitrarily interpreted "breaking point". Those are merely flashpoints that burn bright and fizzle out just as fast or just leaves a vacuum of power for the most advantageous, opportunistic leech to cement themselves as the ruling authority.
It happens because of communities coming together to create alternatives in the here and now. Building a culture of solidarity and support so that people have the confidence to throw off the chains of the old system while also building the foundations of the new system we wish to replace the old one with. And that can only be done at the local level.
Otherwise, humans are more than capable of living on their knees and coming up with insane, fallacious justification for why their suffering is "necessary". It's written across all of human history.
