    No. Just that if one’s intent is to escape systems all together it’s not possible. Similarly if one wants to destroy a system just because it is a system that itself is a system and the ultimate outcome is another system. Maybe a third one that I didn’t bring up is whether or not the new system is actually better than the old one won’t be known until there is proof, until then it’s just on faith that it will be better which is fine.

        It’s a latent thing. The people who are good at revolutions typically aren’t good at running a country. In a lot of circumstances they are purged because a new power doesn’t need a whole bunch of trained and practiced revolutionaries around who aren’t well suited for civic duties. Maybe put another way, the people thinking about revolution aren’t typically thinking about waste management, roads, crops, and so on.
