It is close to impossible for internal forces to remove a united ruling class from power. The worst that this would do for them is force them to remove their mask and be more openly authoritarian, and perhaps chip away at their legitimacy in the long run.
They would prefer to be seen as a democracy rather than as a terror regime.
Maybe they want to set off a violent response in order to justify further repression.
Be careful what you wish for.

If there is no violent response, expect the government to enact even more repression as it has discovered that the people are weak and cowardly.
The government is discovering that it can go full 3rd world dictator on people with virtually 0 effective resistance.
They dont actually care about peoples wellbeing or the harm it does...this government simply cares about exercising its power.
