    Don’t be pedantic. I was clarifying what the previous poster meant by their comment since it was kind of nebulous.

    I’m fully aware of the dangers of authoritarianism historically, presently, and in the future.

      I would infer it as the “peasants revolt” using farm instruments instead of purposely design weapons if war to defend you and yours, and to overthrow tyrants.
