But still not answered the question.

I'll reword it for you, since you want to be pedantic about it.

You're in the process of seizing the means. They see this and don't like it. They respond with overwhelming violence (as they have repeatedly in the past)

Now what?

Okay so once you've non violently seized the means, and they come to violently take them back, then what?

This would be ideal but I'm skeptical that it's actually possible. Bribes are cheaper than taxes, so I think they'd likely just prevent the taxes from happening by greasing the correct palms.

Nah, some of us just see that they buy the elections so that we can't vote for change. And they buy the judges so we can't sue for change. And they buy the media so we can't speak for change. So now we're exploring the extremely distasteful option because all other avenues for change have been blocked

I used to disagree with this concept, but then I discovered how Control implements difficulty. The game is hard, and that cannot be changed, but at any time one can pause the game, turn on assist mode, and become unkillable. And the key to this is after one gets past that really frustrating section, they can turn off the "cheats".

That would work for Elden Ring.

Fun is subjective. For me, challenge is fun.

Probably "call an ambulance... But not for me"

What's anarchy? If you're saying you're against it, you need to be able to say what it is. Otherwise your response is without value.

No, you're arguing against what you think anarchy is

And your preconception is false.

Banana Nababa - like an old 8 bit action platformer, but it's just the bosses

Control has been really good so far, but the pacing of the difficulty is really wonky. Everything is a breeze, right up until something is damn near impossible. So I keep starting and stopping it.
