Your delusion: social upheaval where workers unite and form a glorious socialist revolution where we fill the reflecting pool with billionaire blood and everyone just magically agrees to get along afterwards.
What actually happens: millions suffer and die under the thumb of local fascist warlords while foreign powers balkanize the US to ensure we never get anywhere close to the progress we have now.
Quite a few people didn’t pay attention in history classes and it shows. The French Revolution is a pretty good litmus test actually – if you’ve studied it, you know that what came after killing the royalty and rich was chaos that no one benefited from. If you haven’t, you just think guillotines are based and that’s it.
