You think a revolution looks like riots. Actually, it looks like tedious office work.

I've spent a year studying revolutions that succeeded and revolutions that failed. The ones that won followed a pattern.

It's just a cliffnotes of The anatomy of revolution by Brinton, Crane, 1898-1968.
The problem with this narrative is that Nepal & Myanmar didn't revolt those ways. And Americans really really don't want to revolt. They don't do “The Labor – Do the boring work. Every week. No excuses.” Otherwise there wouldn't have been deathcamps for a whole generation.

⅔ of Americans want slavery, either by a Führer, or BlackRock. They do not infiltrate the “Epstein class” and plan.
