    y'all remember during the Arab Spring and the Egyptian uprising, they did topple the government, and Western media was hyping this up as the first Social Media Revolution, it ended when the military stepped in. Political Power grows out of the barrel of a gun, even if you can peacefully topple a government you still gotta defend it with force.
