the revolution handbook has to be rewritten.
for a peaceful revolution, just stop paying your taxes, starve your oppressors right back, and elect new leaders in new elections supervised by yourselves.
that’s right. why ask tyrants to go away and make room for democracy? in canada, a democratic country, we have a minority government, so the majority is still dissatisfied (or they would be, if the majority wasn’t so apathetic about everything important.). People will never vote together, and think in harmony, until we cease wanting to profit from others and cease needing their attention.
and, after your political revolution, get on with the business of saving the people from the people? Who will be the first to build an environmental nation?
