It’s the funding. Toothpaste costs money. It’s too risky to keep stealing large quantities of toothpaste, but you have to live off the grid for years to do what they do in the movies. You can’t even expect to go back to a normal life after you accomplished your task. Could be they brand you a terrorist and you have to live in hiding forever. There are IRL examples for this.
Also keeping in mind that you can’t guarantee that what comes after the revolution will be any better. For instance, how many revolutions did the French have until they got to where they are now? How many of those revolutions left the country worse off until the next one?
There’s the saying “things will get worse before they get better”… that “worse” could be generations long.
