By and large. You have to get leftist really angry for a long time to get them ready to fight. (Right wingers, in contrast, are born ready. Also, ponder how many right wing pacifists you've ever heard of.) Though Trump and his authoritarian tactics, especially if they lead to an overt authoritarian cancellation of democracy, could get us there eventually. But there is no group of dedicated, pissed-off, left wing ideologues ready to lead a violent revolution at the present. Is there? You hear of any American Bolsheviks?
It took generations of Czarist oppression to create the Russian Bolsheviks.
