>or, read some history.

If you're trying to make a veiled reference to the french revolution, keep in mind that's also ostensibly what the Jan 6th rioters thought they were doing, though arguably a lighter version. "Let's have a violent revolution to kill the elites" sounds like a great idea, until you realize that it works for the other side as well.

History books say that ...oh ...starts flipping frantically ... oh no!

Yeah, no that's not gonna happen and you also don't want that.
