Sure, but you don't get to revolution without many smaller escalations
Libs harp on that word because it sounds rightly ridiculous to an american, but say 'armed protest' and suddenly it sounds a lot more realistic.
Revolution requires organizing, and that's indeed a long and drawn out process. However, armed protest implies disorganization and loose aims, not the direct goal of overthrowing and replacing the bourgeois state with a proletarian one.
