It seems like this is a very important conversation for Western socialists but I really don't see much discussion regarding this. What seems intuitive to me is that the answer is probably not many, but maybe that's just owe to the crumbs we have living in the imperial core.
Thoughts?
also things have been much worse without a revolution, Britain stopped being an industrial power in part because the average British worker was too sick from malnutrition and the effects of long term extreme poverty to work as well as a contemporary American or German, children in factories were often kept in chains 24/7 and regularly worked until they actually dropped dead.
This did not lead to a revolution in the UK, so things being bad is not the sole factor in revolutions
