Yes. All of those countries had more civil rights and longer life expectancy after the revolution

Oh yeah that makes sense. Because a revolution automatically means that your life expectancy increases. At this point, let's just have continuous revoltuions back to back. We'll live forever.

No, overthrowing capitalism and beginning a transition to a more rational economic system increases your life expectancy. You can literally look up graphs.
