Martin, as to "US citizens are not up to it..." well, what's been said about elections over and over again? "It's the economy stupid!" Face this reality, not just working people (blue collar) are being economically squeezed, the middle class, the professional managerial class is disappearing quickly as the wealth class wants everything, every God damn nut & bolt, down to the last grain of sand, the last grain of wheat, this present system cannot and will not be sustained as people will have to face their economic plight straight up. What to do? Fight back as we have the numbers (and day to day they are building- how many people are losing everything they've worked for their entire lives? Remember Covid wherein the long line of vehicles, some really nice cars waiting in line for FOOD? These were people who'd never known destress, hunger, they were middle class which again is disappearing quickly while losing the before mentioned "EVERYTHING" indeed, the middle will not hold) must and will join together and REVOLT! And yes, as Indu stated, "It also needs an intellectual class, artists, writers, poets and thinkers. A liberation movement." Leadership's vitally important especially after the revolution, but hey folks, we have plenty to go around. This' my great hope as I stated earlier: "I am convinced that if We The People do not take this vile government and those backing it (the wealth class) down, it'll spell the end of the world as the US will not allow itself to be brought down by a foreign power: NEVER! It must be internal."

i think they're very much aware of the margins they have (especially with all the data they've been collecting for years now). their internet-pr toy has shown some amazing results and they're pretty confident they can keep riding the thin line between submission and insurrection, imo.
