And how do you envision that coming about in a world ruled by capitalists that are unwilling to let go of power?

Populist revolt? Nowhere did I say I dont support revolution. But you then need to instate a real democracy

And if you instate that "real" democracy in a world that is full of capitalists that will work towards destroying it (as you for example saw with the USSR in its infancy or Nicaragua or Cuba), how do you think your newfound democracy should defend itself?
