Things would get pretty bad during and after a revolution as well.

If the authoritarians win - shit gets 100x worse for everyone "for the sake of security"

If the revolutionaries win there is a good chance those that become the new head of state aren't going to be much better and/or now that it's been proven that revolutions can change governments whose to say that another one doesn't break out because the new government isn't doing stuff "right". This becomes a bloody spiral with no real end.

Saying we need to revolt without really looking at the long term consequences of that action is foolish.
