I’m not accusing you of main character syndrome, and I wrote as much in my original comment. But there are parallels in your comments on here, and it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Elsewhere you wrote that Americans don’t want revolution, they want imperialism. I tend to agree. Thing is, the American empire is in a deep (and, inshallah irreversible) downfall and they may just not get it. As the endless fount of resources and labor stolen from the Third world start to dry up, Capital will (it’s already started, really) squeeze harder at home. This is no reason for optimism on a basic human level, but a very good reason for revolutionary optimism.
