Three, revolutions have always led to counter-revolutionary movements, that almost always attain some degree of power in the new system too. Bloody vicious cycles of purges and counter-purges follow. With a new system and the very same megalomaniac people in power, not much changes -- except for one or two key-issues the revolution wanted to tackle initially.
One revolutions are overwhelmingly bloody and sow seeds of distrust and division among groups.
Two, most aren’t grass-roots but usually orchestrated by larger interests who then coöpt a desperate and vulnerable public.
[added] The effects of revolutions can have deleterious repercussions for several generations down the line.
