That ankle better get it together, though.
And then the Blues lost
This is my own personal opinion, which is why this is staying up. But when has a revolution worked in the last 20 years?
Hey, let's fix the old one.
Rojava's immense social revolution has continued to hold on despite everyone and their grandmother trying to bomb the shit out of them.
In Armenia, Nepal, and Ukraine, less all-encompassing revolutions have occurred to successfully change leadership while maintaining the structure of a liberal capitalist republic. Albania may well join this list soon.
It worked for Ukraine 2014
I wouldn't call it successful yet, but it's definitely getting better:
The Revolution of Dignity (Ukrainian: Революція гідності, romanized: Revoliutsiia hidnosti), also known as the Maidan Revolution or the Ukrainian Revolution,[2] took place in Ukraine in February 2014[a] at the end of the Euromaidan protests.[1] Scores of protesters were killed by government forces during clashes in the capital Kyiv. Parliament then voted to remove President Viktor Yanukovych, return to the 2004 Constitution of Ukraine, and call new elections. The revolution prompted Russia to occupy Crimea, starting the Russo-Ukrainian war.[1][2]

Wasn't the point to get rid of Yushchenko and have a new election, so they could rely/orient to Europe more?.... Seems like that's happened.
They're in a war because of it though. If that's the best example of it "working," I don't think it's great. They're not a huge country like the US either. A civil war would be bad, I think we can agree on that.
I guess that means the American Revolution didn't work either because we just wound up at war with Britain
You're really calling for a civil war in the US? How do you think the rest of the world will do in that situation? The fucking Strait of Hormuz being shut down is causing a shitshow, what do you think having America in a civil war would do? Either, you're not from here and have no skin in the game, or you're not thinking this through.
Worth it if it stops usa from murdering people in other countries for at least a month
Well now you're clearly just putting words in my mouth and making far flung assumptions
20 years? You think things are only as bad as 2006?
I said 20 years because of the military knowing so much about every citizen and being incredibly strong.
