True, but their revolution was to seize and transform the State, which is a very far cry from abolishing it. I can easily imagine revolution occurring in the US in my lifetime, but I’m very pessimistic about it resulting in any kind of abolition of the State.
Oh, well that's a totally different thing then. Yeah, there's no one alive today that will witness the abolition of state because we were all raised and conditioned under a state. It'll have to be a new generation raised under a withering state that abolishes it

I’ll feel hope when we are abolishing the State, which I admit doesn’t seem particularly likely to happen in my lifetime.
Lenin and the Bolsheviks didn't expect revolution in their lifetimes either.

Yeah, that’s why I’m feeling pretty damn hopeless.
