Also, not all revolutions are violent. Ask the Czechs and Slovaks. As far as I know, they aren't living under a worse tyranny.
The meaning of my statement is basically that the online leftists talk about the "revolution" like Christians talk about the rapture. An apocalyptic event that will fix everything that's wrong with the world and create utopia. In consequence, both groups talk about their chosen apocalyptic event without actually doing anything to improve the world. Of course its not all Christians and leftists, just the bottom of the barrel of the respective groups.
