We don’t know if a revolution against the emerging hard tyranny would be much worse. All of the Eastern bloc and Soviet Union/ Russia improved after the hard line communist regimes were toppled. We also have our own revolution as an example of a positive outcome.
As far as the Weimar Republic was concerned, the socialist leader did institute a temporary military dictatorship when Germany was in the throes of hyperinflation.
That being said, it does appear that 50+% of people in this country do not understand liberty. We also see more polarization among individuals and now even regions. Secession and/or a civil war may be the best outcome. Damn if I’m going to live in a Leftist dictatorship.

It might have to come down to a cities-burning situation before people take it seriously.
