The answer is so simple. There are only two reasons which are controversial to each other and which compel the revolutionaries to take weapons as their third arm.
1. Felling of Insecurity and
2. To show their Superiority.
Now we end up with two other questions like “why do they feel insecure?” and “why should they show themselves superior?”
Let us now answer the first question. The revolutionary thought do not start in the minds of a big mass crowd but they sparkle only in the minds of a small part of that big mass crowd which believes in a particular form or way of political ideas. But when these revolutionaries who are non acceptors of the governer's political beliefs and who have their own new ideas try to spread it over to the masses. And the masses is a constituent of various kinds of people in them such as rulers, advisers, thinkers, critics, followers and revolutionaries themselves.
Out of this big list the revolutionaries are the belligerents to the rulers and the advisers are there on both sides. The critics are a group of people who always try to find fault with anyone and everyone who they tend to Cross by and so they cannot be considered as neutrals or even as supporters to any other group but the thinkers is a group which could be considered as neutrals or supporters and they do have a influential role to play in the game to some extent unless and otherwise they are been corrupted by either side. Now when we come to the group called “followers” it constitutes the big amount in the crowd and these followers are there for every other group in the mass. There are followers for the rulers, followers for the advisers, followers for the thinkers, followers for the critics and even followers for the revolutionaries. But what makes it so different is that the number of followers each one has behind them. Let us now understand who these followers are. Followers are people who does not know to think much and who are always indulged in their own survival problems of gathering food, cloth, shelter and are primarily the innocent victims for the decisions of the other groups.
So now what happens is that, the revolutionaries try to attract the followers of the other groups towards them by preaching their ideas which annoy the rulers as they are going to be the sufferers at the end. So the rulers along with their supporting advisors and thinkers group try to suppress the revolutionaries in various ways starting from peace talks to that of launching strike attacks on them with the help of their loyal followers. Now the revolutionaries feel their insecurity among the society in which they were living all these days and they are forced to elope from the society to find a safe place for themselves. So the best place for them is always a deserted place (mostly forests) out of the main land.
Now comes the answer for the second question: As they and their ideas were insulted by the rulers, and their supporters, followed by their exile life, the revolutionaries now wants to prove that they are not as weak as their belligerents think.So now the whole concept of reviving the society has turned into revenging the society which has insulted them. They would then think as to what made them insecure and would find that they had no weapons to defend. This leads to the search of weapons by them and that search leads them into access of weapons either inferior or superior to their belligerents, but most of the time it would be inferior. Simultaneously they will also try to get supporters from inside the society so that they can have information about their belligerents.
And now everything is ready, they have
political ideas to preach,
reason to fight,
supporters to help,
belligerents to oppose and
of course the weapons as their third arm.
