Revolution and vengeance are different things?
one can include elements of the other.
maybe there's just something wrong with me. perhaps the majority of you are out here acting purely rationally or whatever but i know i want blood to pay for the innocents harmed by those in power
Considering that the billionaire class will fund the fascists who try to kill us during a revolution, I would argue it's largely rational to want them dead.
Why should you degrade yourself by exacting violence on the ruling class of old?
Do you think they'll just give up their power?
No, they'll use economic weapons (eg. scorched earth policy, sanctions, IMF structural adjustments), if not military force (eg. air bombs, drones, missiles), and propaganda campaigns, with their media structure, as we've seen in history before
It's not only just, but necessary, in many times
