{...revolution...} ???

Against fully militarized police-forces ??

The ONLY way to win (get out of the matrix) is to refuse to play their "game" !!

I'm not entirely sure how the army would react; probably a split. the lower ranks don't see much of the graft money from what I have read. just from dealing with cops and reading a lot, i would expect most of the cops would be on the side of the oligarchs. national guard? lotta Trump supporters in there.

Then start PLANNING one.

Revolution from MEDIA, FINANCE, EDUCATION, and POLITICS.

So far (?),

I’ve seen little to NO PLAN.

Righteous anger gives you a French Revolution and a Reign of Terror:

Which gets you NO where.

Start REPLACING fence sitters with people who won’t take “No” to real change.

Burning the house down with everyone in it(?):

Doesn’t get the job done.

Start by recruiting the right people to replace the ones you don’t want. In the next election cycle (‘26): make darn sure you’re ACTIVE and put people in like Katie Porter who can not only TAKE the heat , but give RIGHT BACK with NO apologies.

Gotta start locally and build up quickly.

Very good counsel Martin.

The planning must be done literally “hiding” in plain site. Using new information technology forming a Western version of Russia’s “Internet Research Institute” (or rather many companies), contracted with with the military and other government agencies (for the sake of “efficiency” and “surveillance”). The next gen technology is already out there and is adapting rapidly to civilian applications and control.

The Neo Liberal movement is going to become one of the great casualties of this technology: thus the push back you see today : backed up by foreign powers who are pushing to destabilize the economies of every vulnerable liberal democracy on the planet. The oligarchs of more traditional heavy private industries are falling in line with every single offer from any government that will keep their profits flowing into their coffers. If they must sell out their countries and put up their consciousness and their personhood as collateral (along with millions who depend upon them?); so be it. They’ve done it many times before ; they can do it again ; Right (??):,

UNTIL (?)..

They CAN’T: because all they have to deal with is an outdated business model and their traditional approach to innovation. Now, enter the high tech oligarchs. Who have enslaved the information revolution and stalled it. This is not a permanent situation. They know it.

Now enters next Gen techno developers and the new way they produce and influence.

Put simply , the old techies do not want change. They dominate old politics, who champion “stability” and the more traditional values of old society. It now becomes a battle between these two camps. They can make or break information software and hardware:

They’re simply not prepared for what’s coming.

This is where real change begins and thrives under the noses of those who hold traditional power. It starts here and with the legislative and judicial leaders who recognize it and start to work with it: (a clue (?)..so far (?): they haven’t). That’s a weakness from which they and their old oligarch systems (?), may never recover.

THERE’S your chance Martin. There is your revolution being planned :

Hidden in open site.

To say that the French Revolution got France nowhere is completely ridiculous. Read history.

I am NOT American...arrange it yourself!

I wish you good luck.

Unfortunately (?);

It took France over a century to get past that bloody guillotine Reign of Terror and doomed European empires to contract into despotic industrial capitalism: setting the stage for mass death on an industrial scale , now known as WWI. Meanwhile France surges into a socialist industrial and cultural mainstay ; still struggling with massive economic uncertainty. That left them open to the influence of fascism that would dawn with word wide Depression and blossom into Hitlerite Fascism and The German National Party (aka: Nazi). Yes, the ideals of The Revolution would help them resist the massive collaboration with the Nazi regime:

but without the intervention of the Americas and The British (?): they would have fallen easily.

Since the rescue of 1945(?), they recovered like most of Europe. Today another uncertain world wide hegemony threatens that stability as Neo Nazi movements are spreading through the NATO countries: foreshadowing another fascist takeover:

Unless those who see this happening clearly start to a lot more than pontificate about it and fight back with all factions and tools at their disposal.

Getting too comfortable with “prosperity” can be and is fatal.

Time to create a new economy and hegemony: It must start NOW.
