The way to such a system can’t be through a violent uprising, you’ll be seen as illegitimate and opportunists. Revolutions themselves are very volatile points in history, and it can be very easy for the wrong person or set of people to take the reigns of power. We don’t want another Stalin or Mao.
You’re insulting all the people who suffered even more oppressive regimes than Stalin or Mao as a consequence of NOT arming themselves. Chileans suffered Pinochet as a consequence of lack of oppression of the fascist opposition during Allende. Spanish suffered Franco as a consequence of lack of oppression of the fascists during the Spanish Second Republic. Oppression is sadly a tool that must be used, as sparingly as possible that’s true, to prevent reactionary elements from maintaining or reinstating even more oppressive structures.
People everyday in post-colonial countries suffer immeasurable despair as a consequence of lack of revolution. If you criticise Stalin or Mao and consider them undesirable and illegitimate, you should be even more convinced of the illegitimacy of current western governments that impose imperialism on the global south. Every day that we delay or refuse these armed revolutions, we’re perpetuating this system which is even more harmful than the USSR or communist China by any metric possible.

Speak for yourself.
Oh, so you’re into fascists?
Oh look, holocaust trivialization from an “anti-authoritarian”
To ask that is to understand neither fascism nor communism.
Your heroes tick all the boxes.
Thank you for Merriam Webster’s definition of fascism; now I am enlightened.
I don’t know why I wasted so many hours studying communism and fascism when I could have simply looked them up in the dictionary.
Do you want anybody else’s? Or do you deny what words mean? Thanks for the insult. At least I don’t worship fascists.
