I think you’ve falsely equated violence with revolution.
There are currently arsonists in Atlanta and elsewhere in the US fighting the creation of cop city and projects like it via property damage. That is violence with no danger of creating an autocracy.

I do agree that strong group unity, some form of multistate participation, and good leadership and structure, are all very important for it to yield positive results.
