Nah I'm with you there. I don't think a violent revolution is likely to work for precisely the same reason you suggest.

But that doesn't mean not advocating for bold change. Advocating for massive overhauls to how democracy is practised (especially in countries with an electoral system that frankly IMO shouldn't even count as democracy—i.e. FPTP) and widespread disruptive protests to achieve your goals.

Sure. But that all falls under incremental change. Don't get me wrong, I do think we really need to change the whole system from the ground up. But that will only work democratically, if the result is supposed to be better than what we have now.
