These people could coordinate well enough to do Jan 6, but once they actually went through with it, none of them actually knew how to achieve anything that really furthered their motives.

I expect most of these people, whether they realize it or not, don't actually want revolution. None of them would know what to do with it, or how to achieve it. They just want a simulation of revolution, feeling like they are changing something without actually achieving anything outside of stroking their own ego's.

They live in a bubble that's been telling them since they were suckling their mom's tits that the other people are the fascists, and stealing lives and freedoms in broad daylight (the opposite of reality). Add to that the heavy gun culture and nationalism, and you get a mob of people wanting to shoot the 'other'. Last year a dude was asking Charlie Kirk in public when they should start killing liberals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxNFXJmNhbA&t=15s
