For you, perhaps.

I think it would be both proper and fitting for the Democratic party and its strongholds to end by  succumbing to a proletarian revolution myself.

Let's start by agreeing that any change this dramatic will trigger some degree of violence -- how much is still TBD.  But let's assume that at least two sides are ideologically wedded to fighting to the end.  If so, then yes, a proletarian revolution will hurt everyone.  

FWIW, I don't see the proletariat revolting.  I see the petty bourgeoise carrying that torch.  The proletariat are too burdened to "mount the barricades",  but a put upon class of small business owners like you might take it on. You have the grievance part down pat.
