It's right-wing to sneer at the idea of "revolution".

If no one pushed for radical change, nothing even mildly liberal would ever happen.

Those on top only allow liberalism in order to stop radicalism.

The Carter years and the Nineties prove this.

It's not just leftist class-warfare that revolves around revolution. Revolution is also at the core of fascism.
