In practice in the system of Western Liberal Democracy, the Gov need only coerce the top 10% of income earners to keep the show on the road because they’re subsidising via redistribution the majority who contribute effectively nil.

The system doesnt need 50% to be destroyed, it needs a decent fraction of that top 10% to withdraw economically to unbalance the books and it will very quickly spiral out of control.

This is the white pill.

We don’t need to convince the masses, we need only convince a bunch of productive people and the whole thing can be destroyed and replaced with something that isn’t completely parasitic.

For leftists, no amount of taxes will ever be enough on the wealthy.

That the Top 10% carry the entire shitshow of government doesn’t register for them.

That half the people contribute so little that it’s effectively a rounding error makes no sense.

All the problems in society would be solved by just taking more money from the rich and giving it to their pet projects so we can all have “free” shit.

This is all you can ever expect from liberal democracy - parasites convincing a underclass to target the minority of the most productive in the economy to carry both of them on their backs.
