    ~50% of an armed populace will fight for an oppressive regime. It’s not an effective way to deter governmental takeover.

      And that number is based on what, exactly? Vibes? Revolution only succeeds when there is broad support.

        Revolution only succeeds when there is broad support.

          The US Electoral system is not a representation of political views, but constraints within what the Bourgeoisie indicates as “acceptable.” Support for Luigi is widespread among the Proletariat, regardless of how they voted. Your error is in assuming the DNC and GOP parties represent the people.
