    Revolutions and civil war have a nasty habit of not going the way you want them to go. Even the French Revolution was coopted by Napoleon and turned into a monarchy.

      That’s the sad thing about revolutions, really. They pretty much happen when people don’t have any other options anymore - so what can they do, but to revolt, even if it leads to an another shitty situation? At least with trying there’s the possibility of things changing for the better, while allowing the status quo to continue it will only get worse
