By that I mean no alienating tech like Tiktok and such, strong middle class, normal seasons/no worry of climate crisis, general optimism about the future etc. etc.

There will be no revolution, mate.
That’s like saying you can keep heating up water and have it never boil. Disparity is rising, revolution is already happening around the world. Capitalism is continuing to decay. Revolution is inevitable as long as climate collapse or World War 3 don’t end us first.
Something that Westerners would do well to remember is that the revolution may not happen where you are, but it doesn’t have to
Try to examine the absurdity of this statement for a moment. You think the current system of governance and control which has barely existed for a century or 2 is going to continue in perpetuity for the rest of human history? You could argue this version of global capitalism isnt even 100 years old yet if you look at the end of WW2 as the start. So your argument is that a system that is younger than some people still alive today will never end? Or is it that you think we will go extinct in the very near short term and people wont overthrow the government before that happens?
There just isn’t enough will or time.
Not everyone is so apathetic about it. The billionaires building their apocalypse bunkers in abandoned missile silos certainly aren’t. The people involved in ramping up the dehumanization of immigrants, preparing for the cruelty that will be inflicted upon the influx of those escaping man made “natural” disasters aren’t. This is the sort of game which is won or lost before you start playing. It starts soon. We have to build that will now or else.
The solution would be to ban any right-wing politics worldwide and torture billionaires in submissions and destroy their bunkers so they can’t escape, but they will never leave do that.
So you’re certain that revolution is impossible, but you’re also certain that if there is a “strong middle class” in the future, that you would actually be a part of it?
Maybe you don’t understand that there isn’t simply any future to speak of at the moment.
With libs like you? Sadly, you might be right. You’ll whine about the world ending as you refuse to lift a finger to stop it.
In the dark times, should the stars also go out?
