Lol this is what gets me about the "get the guillotine" folks.

They think they'll be the youth on the propaganda poster, waving the flag over the rubble of a conquered city, as if that's realistic, or that it wouldn't come with massive loss of life (not just in the capital class), lawlessness, and a huge power vacuum that will obviously be filled by an authoritarian (and likely a bigoted fascist).

People only seem to know the "guillotining the aristocracy" part, not the "reign of terror" part.

Or the bit about setting up systems of mutual aid so that our comrades arent killed by the dogs. Theyre here to cry against voting. Not to actually bring about a revolution and especially not keep each other alive in the event of one.
