I dunno how to handle this situation for those who are unlucky to live under US war-criminal regime. For others, I would like to propose to consider the following:

- convert your USD savings into other assets (e.g. EUR)

- sell US-related stocks

- boycott US-produced goods and services if there are replacements

Then you need to provide a credible source which provides an explanation why FR was a revolution and other is not, not a Stalin's article from 1918 you provided which is not about that at all. Left-leaning historians often define (a real) revolution as a change in ruling class, based on that definition both FR and OR were the very real revolutions (one was about passing power to bourgeois class, another about passing power to the working class), but if you are using other definitions, please provide them.

"Though most of the memorials were built from the 1960s through the 1980s, the most abstract designs harken back to the Russian Revolution of 1917, when Vladimir Lenin and his Bolsheviks promised to empower workers and take the reins from the Tsarist bourgeois." - the propaganda language of the article is illiterate as there were two revolutions in Russian Empire in 1917, Tsarist regime was overthrown by February Revolution and bolsheviks overthrew bourgeois regime in October revolution, thus talking about "Tsarist bourgeois" vs bolsheviks is simply not literate.

I simply can not find source in the original Swiss article. The most relevant part of the article is:

The Federal Intelligence Service (NDB) confirms on request that the Swiss authorities are aware of "the case of the Russian spies who were discovered in the Hague and then taken away". NDB communications chief Isabelle Graber also writes: "The NDB has actively participated in this operation, together with its Dutch and British partners." This has contributed to the "prevention of illegal actions against a critical Swiss infrastructure".

How's that related to the two guys detained in Netherlands? I mean, the accusation of them being targeted Swiss lab?

How can I be sure this is not a sensationalist fantasy of a journo?

It would be good to publish the full report from NDB.

This is a good movement,and lets hope that sanctions on the people enforced by authoritarian psychopathic Western regimes will be lifted up. The only known way (historically) to liberalization is through making people richer through trade,not enforcing them to be alone with poverty and populists.

The problem would be still to maintain the UTXO set. Fortunately, by using a two-party dynamic authenticated data structure, it is possible to have only miners(and also powerful full nodes willing to hold full-state, like block explorers etc) to store the whole set, while others can check proofs of set transformations included into blocks, storing just 32 bytes. For details, see introduction to the paper https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/994 (and blockchain processing benchmark graph, 2nd half of pg. 14)
