  The American war for Independence is a pretty sad example of revolution.

  Think of the average American, how much did their material conditions change? Now compare to the French Revolution, Haitian Revolution, and Bolshevik revolution.

  America by comparison, was just an “under new management”.

    Wealthy men smelled the tide turning and funded the army in exchange for the accolades of leading during the time of revolution. They hijacked the movement to make a country where they ruled. It’s why they had such disdain for the rabble.

    Well the American revelolution was driven more by the rich or at least the mercantile class than the average person.

    You are looking at it the wrong way. They didn’t have to pay for the war they started and they could expand westward.

  Funny enough the gun in that scene is not loaded. When Melvin tries to shoot the monster he realizes he was lied to by someone trying to provoke him into action.

  Kinda ironic, with this meme.

      I came here to say this. I’m both surprised and happy to see a Tremors meme in the year of Our Lord, Two Thousand and Twenty Six.

  A revolution would be awesome. We could literally eliminate all of these corrupt oligarchs and traitor politicians. Then we can have a constitutional convention to make sure this level of corruption never happens again.

    And then everything will be settled and there will be peace, like in Russia after January 19, 1918

      It’s funny you should say that, if you look at the living standards & human development before and after, it’s pretty clear that the revolution was overall a really good thing.

      Yea you’re totally right we should just keep bowing down to the pedofile parasite class and embrace fascism. The last time fascism rose globally 70 million people died so yea your plan seems much better. For sure

  buys popcorn and beer and I wish y’all happy shooting… A bit of a sad turnoff for starters though, that the history of your country actually progressed -250 years
