Don’t you guys also want to overthrow a government?

According to communist theory, our current liberal governments are not democratic, because capital exerts control over them by various means. Thus, overthrowing them is necessary. Of course, if we had a democratic government, we wouldn’t wish to overthrow it.

Tell that to the people in china.

If I’m not mistaken, there were extremely small-scale protests about COVID-19 measures and the government immediately listened and removed them.
