That’s defeatist. I agree it is difficult but not impossible. Occupy Wall Street is the closest in recent history. That’s the last time the ruling class feared a revolt.
It’s not defeatist to state that one method is practically impossible, while pretty clearly pointing that revolutionary socialism is both necessary and far more practical. Occupy was an example of a crisis that had real worker momentum, but no organization to take it from unrest to real political change.
Further, I would say the George Floyd protests were spookier for capitalists.
