I think it's more about seeing how bad it was going to get. Then being shown how good it should have always been.
A lot of people are already saying they didn't like Trump but shit was better with him in office. If we keep down that road then snap, everything is taken out then yeah people will wake up.
That's exactly what I'm rooting for -- that it doesn't need to become apocalytic but only close enough to the edge that people start getting scared; then the arrests, then a return to MAGA.
It won't wake everyone up but it doesn't have to. The American Revolution succeeded despite a large percentage of the population being Loyalists [Tories] at the start and some even at the end. (Estimates vary but it was almost certainly more than 4% - 6%:
John Adams wrote that approximately one-third of the American
population supported the move for independence (Patriots), one third of the population supported the king (Loyalists), and one-third
supported neither side (neutral).
It is hard to say exactly how many colonists were Loyalists; often
they kept their loyalty a secret. Their numbers also varied by
location. There were many in New York, so many in Pennsylvania
that an officer described it as “enemies’ country,” in South Carolina
there were more Loyalists, and in Georgia, there were so many
Loyalists that the Georgians considered leaving the revolution.
