    Since changing from within is impossible, and voting in a new party is highly unlikely, it seems the revolutionaries were right all along.

      Why do you think change from within impossible?

      That’s exactly what Trump and MAGA did to the Republican party.

      Violent revolution brings change but rarely the kind of change most of those who engaged in it actually wanted.

        Well, first, MAGA isn’t really a qualitative change to the GOP, and is fully compatible with bourgeois rule, unlike trying to get socialism to overtake the DNC. Secondly, revolution is by far the most successful way at bringing about what those engaged with it wanted, not sure what you’re talking about here.
