The role of revolution is to bring about true democracy. The "democracies" we see these days are more accurately described as oligarchy, aristocracy, socialism, etc, etc
Socrates has described the following life cycle of the style of governing
Monarchy which will eventually decay to become tyranny
Tyranny is deposed & replaced by Aristocracy which in turn decays to become oligarchy
Oligarchy is then deposed & replaced by democracy which in a decadent state is described as mob rule.
Out of the chaos of mob rule will rise monarchy/dictatorship & the cycle continues.

In modern democracy there is no need for revolution; anything shall be sorted out by peaceful means.
