I think your sentiment is understandable given the state of affairs. Have you spent time reading about past societies that have undergone collapse? While it may seem daunting, changing the system before a point of no return would historically be the right move. Historically, the most likely outcome of your strategy is a shift towards more oligarchs and feudalism. Have a look at Russia, Iraq, China (post ww2), etc. I don’t think there is any reason to be optimistic about “drastic change” being change for the better. It very well can go both ways, and historically tends to the worse.
