    Yeah I think a lot of people miss that revolutions are the culmination of decades or even centuries of contradictions between the ruling hegemony and evolving material conditions. But that doesn’t make for a good 90 minute action-adventure so instead that bit gets glossed over or presented as window dressing for the Great Man’s initiative.

      It would make a great year long series and everyday people just living their lives, making even the smallest steps to prepare the future would help advance it, no it would not do well for the silly great man theory though so it’d be an axed plan.
