There's no individual thing, no great man or building or company, that holds it all together. Everyone is just as disposable as we are and that gap will be filled by things just as demonic that are empowered by shock doctrine. No individual action has such tremendous propaganda of the deed that it can make enough people do Step 2 to overcome the reaction to the original act. Nobody burned a second police station in Oregon or every police station everywhere the next day, it's just one more spectacle. Revolution is the boring work of meetings and reading and agitating while capitalism crumbles under the weight of its own contradictions, then seizing on individual moments of rupture with the much more powerful organisations you built.
^this is it OP We can insert ourselves to stop violence in the moment. But adventurism, though it seems tempting and cathartic, will not produce the stable results required for a revolution - this requires mass action. We must act on things as a mass movement, this is living out our values and demonstrating the power of the collective.

I typically respond to such feelings with research of the pragmatic kind
I always think, “Who would care for my cats?”
Invest energy in non-adventurist things that will actually move things forward and maybe exercise.
