Why not enact change locally in your community first

Then the government knows what I look like and will be able to plan around my existence. Most national security policies assume cartoonishly massive human waves coming out of nowhere are not possible. The element of surprise and the rush attack is key to victory. Revealing that I have this power without conquering the planet ensures instead that I get kidnapped and get experimented with in a secret bunker.

the american revolution was illegal. sedition and insurrection are as good as the relative politics of the belligerents.

fascism is bad, capital slowly capitulating to fascists is bad, a proletarian revolution would be good.
