Most revolutions are devolutions.

2019-02-23 02:48:59 UTC  

Or at least they have no visible positive outcome in the short term.

Hi republicans

2019-02-23 02:56:12 UTC  
2019-02-23 02:57:03 UTC  

I’m not a republican

2019-02-23 02:57:09 UTC  

I’m a constitutionalist

2019-02-23 02:57:21 UTC  

I'm leaning Constitutionalist.

2019-02-23 02:57:33 UTC  

@Colonel Sanders™ The American Revolution was an exception, yes.

2019-02-23 02:57:50 UTC  

The french revolution

2019-02-23 02:58:08 UTC  

i guess i would agree that a lot are devolutions

2019-02-23 02:58:09 UTC  

The French Revolution IS a Prime example of failed revolution in the short term.

2019-02-23 02:58:10 UTC  

but not most

2019-02-23 02:58:24 UTC  

but short term is not the goal of a revolution

2019-02-23 02:58:59 UTC  

True.

2019-02-23 02:59:12 UTC  

But for the short term, a lot of revolutions are failures.

2019-02-23 02:59:22 UTC  

i mean

2019-02-23 02:59:30 UTC  

i dont know what revolutionaries expect

2019-02-23 02:59:49 UTC  

I believe a lot of revolutionaries are misguided.

2019-02-23 02:59:54 UTC  

overthrowing the current social structure and government is obviously in the hsort term going to lead to chaos

2019-02-23 03:00:00 UTC  

Not all but certainly a lot

2019-02-23 03:00:06 UTC  
2019-02-23 03:00:40 UTC  

Maintaining the status quo is important. If one wants change, a violent overthrow is not the way. It is important to engage in civil discussions.

2019-02-23 03:00:53 UTC  

agreed aswell

2019-02-23 03:01:02 UTC  

that's why we see less revolutions in western nations

2019-02-23 03:01:14 UTC  

because people are hard to misinform nowadays

2019-02-23 03:01:35 UTC  

Indeed.

2019-02-23 03:01:48 UTC  

It’s too far gone for civility

2019-02-23 03:01:51 UTC  

but for example south sudan

2019-02-23 03:01:57 UTC  

that revolution was a fucking disaster

2019-02-23 03:02:10 UTC  

Violence and take over will be the only answer

2019-02-23 03:02:20 UTC  

not exactly

2019-02-23 03:02:26 UTC  

So like Bismarcls quote?

2019-02-23 03:02:34 UTC  

?

2019-02-23 03:02:35 UTC  

Have you seen the state of the world and your generation ?

2019-02-23 03:02:51 UTC  

It's time to stop working about elections and start attacking with an iron fist or smtg

2019-02-23 03:02:52 UTC  

elaborate

2019-02-23 03:02:55 UTC  

Just paraphrasing

2019-02-23 03:02:58 UTC  

How many genders are we at? It’s ridiculous

2019-02-23 03:02:59 UTC  

oh

2019-02-23 03:03:19 UTC  

@s t a i n e d g l a s s my personal opinion is that as long as it doesn't affect me i dont give a shit

2019-02-23 03:03:29 UTC  

the problem is when the government tries to force it upon me
