i think the ability for capital to snuff out human life without masses of people having to experience that visceral horror is what makes the current decline interesting. no one wants to break that ice (understandably) but not even us comrades can imagine voluntarily subjecting ourselves to that level of psychic trauma.
Honestly it's because we all know (or somewhat know) that capital and capitalists are monsters and would put dissidents in gas chambers if able, the rest of the working classes also know this to a subconscious degree and will even express this via perceptions of how evil elites can be (whether conspiracy theory territory or not and just being credible claims). Once the glass does break though and gloves come off is when both sides understand that only one will come out of the conflict alive.
