Nobody wants to live in such a world. We literally live in a world where extreme violence, torture and misery are the norm. You're just insulated from it.

And we are talking about a hypothetical revolution. What makes you think you will get to choose whether or not you fight? Very likely if you're fighting age the reactionaries will conscript you, and your choices will be fight with them, fight with us, or be killed and help nobody but keep your moral integrity intact. The whole point of this thread is that there is no choice in some circumstances. You either do something horrible or something worse will happen to you and your people. This whole thread was started by a guy who said basically "I'd rather the worse stuff happen to my people than tarnish my moral purity."
