Major, multinational corporations own and/or supply just about everything we need to survive right now. The only exception might be for rural folks who come together and coop food and other things to be locally sustainable. Still, that's a hard road to hoe.
Many of us recognize now that those corporations are actually the enemy. They are merely veils for the wealthy and powerful families at the top who have leveraged what they have to push out the small companies and Mom & Pop's so that we are just about totally beholden to them.
So, if a revolution were going to be the brunt of change, justice, and equity, our enemies could simply shut off our supply of anything and everything until we were, in essence, begging for mercy. What kind of revolution would that be? A very, very short one. PTB wins again.
So, a pre-revolution would have to be about creating new, local and sustainable ways to be able to live and function with less and less corporate dependency because, right now, we are infants at their tit. That's how far into Serfdom for our Corporate Overlords we have descended, overall.
