    Folks don’t realize real change can’t happen drastically and realistically be expected to remain. It’s going to be baby steps. Getting them to believe gradual change isn’t worth fighting for is a great way to maintain the status quo. They don’t raise they are their own worst enemies.

        Are you talking about the French revolution that resulted in the installation of Emperor Napoleon and a renewed French imperialism? That could be argued was a reason for the Vietnam war?
