Why haven’t we had a revolution?

[OnlyFins]

Are we just not the overthrowing type as a nation?

But OP who do you want to overthrow and who would you want in their place?

And why do you know so little British history? Are you living in Britain? If not why do you want us to have a revolution??

In my defence I never said I wanted one or that we needed one. I went to a rubbish school and only remember Henry 8th tbh.

@OnlyFins watch some Horrible History. That will teach you all you need to know about history. Good songs too.

If everyone was kind and gentle and civilised, then you could try radically reforming society. You could shake things up and try out different systems until something worked. But they're not. Some people are intelligent and reasonable and civilised. Others are ignorant, violent, amoral, irrational and totally selfish

And when you have a revolution it tends to be the first people (intelligent, reasonable and civilised) who have high ideals and who want a better society who kick it off. It then tends to be the second type (ignorant, violent, amoral, irrational and totally selfish) who end up in charge and who have no ideals bar getting power and keeping it. By whatever means necessary.
