finding myself lacking

Just remember that there were only like two cases of successful adventurism for the hundreds of attempts over the last ~150 years. (Gavrilo Princip and yamagami )

There were more. A lot of european noblemen had a bad time in the 1870s-80s

It's not about whether or not the specific dude got got, it's about the fallout from it. Generally, Propaganda of the Deed resulted in a backlash by the public against the socialist movements rather than support, whereas yamagami achieved all of his goals, and Princip achieved independence for his people from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

I know it turned public opinion against anarchism and was deadly to their movement.

But in the long run it weakened the perception of the royals as untouchable, and created space for Leninism to grow and succeed.

Which sucks because our anarchist comrades deserved a better go at things. But it's hard to see a 1917 without the death of Alexander II
