At no time in history has a movement been allowed to use the system's infrastructure for a revolt. Do you think East Germany allowed dissidents to get airtime on TV? Do you think the Bolsheviks could use their "rights" in 1914? People on the dissident right are pissed that they can't use mainstream media as an equal platform while forgetting that people who fight against the system are usually shot or thrown in a gulag. We aren't especially mistreated by the system, we are treated shockingly nicely and we should be grateful for that.

We have to stop living in fantasy-land and thinking that we can make some good arguments and make some funny videos and win in a fair election. We have to get real and realize that every system will defend itself including this one even if this one is unusually weak and mild. There have been lots of successful regime changes, massive shifts that have happened with far greater resistance but they have planned accordingly.

The difference is that the system today has a vastly larger amount of power. The majority of people are glued to their smartphones and absorb media all day, every day. In 1914 most people formed their opinions from their real-life experiences, and groups could form and freely associate. Today, freely-associating groups can form on Facebook but they'll be shut down the moment they pose a threat to the system. In fact, with Trump out of the picture, even milquetoast right-wing populism will be purged from online spaces, as already happened to r/The_Donald.

I fear that the level of technology may mean we soon are past the point of no return, and the system will have control forever.
