Part 2 depicts the escalation of class conflict and the onset of revolution. Following the general strike, the resistance grows increasingly radical, culminating in dramatic events like the Chicago Commune. Amid the rising tide of revolution, the working class appears to gain ground, only to be crushed again under the iron heel of the ruling class. The resistance devolves into terrorism, leading to greater chaos and fear, as society spirals further into destruction. In the end, the aftermath of oppression and struggle reveals a world stripped of humanity and hope, concluding with a tragic resolution. This part vividly portrays the limits and ultimate failure of revolution and resistance.
