It's a good development but it's far too deterministic and idealistic for my tastes. Any sort of uprising is much more than merely a mathematical equation and libs love to vulgarize the work of Chenoweth by trotting out that mythical 3.5%, as if to say that all you need to do is to sign up that percentage of a population to an idea and suddenly change becomes a political inevitability.

I really wish it was that easy because then I could go door knocking instead of grappling with theory.
