IMHO disciplined nonviolent resistance requires organization and to be backed up with a credible threat (of violence presumably), neither of which are really present here
I'd be cool with a bloodless revolution... pretty sure the USSR was basically accomplished that way
The way I see it, the First Imperialist War (WWI) was the heart of the Soviet revolution. The Red Army defeated the Imperialist forces in order to make it possible to establish a new social order. Famously a lot of blood.
The liberals tried to prevent the Bolsheviks from coming into power by seizing printing presses and all that. I kinda view that more as a failed soft coup.
