I believe that due to the inherent contradictions of capitalism a revolution is inevitable, and necessary, but it's still not something that is easily palatable. Revolution is certainly romanticized, yet I still question every day whether or not I would be willing to die for my beliefs. My question to my fellow comrades is do you think non-violent form of revolution is possible, or will the state and reactionaries always crack down? I know that in the past those with power and prestige have been reluctant to give it up.
Good comment, and to add to your last point, allowing a counter revolution to succeed in our epoch doesn’t just mean the bourgeoisie taking revenge on whatever proletarians it can get its hands on, it means inevitable climate catastrophe. We’re talking about a choice between crushing our class enemies or the end of widespread human life on this planet.
