When we dream there is a sub-conscious control over the content, also mind is not a screen but the matter which is doing the thinking, awareness is not on a screen but an attribute which is attached to our conscious processes.

If human mind is the screen or a crystal ball, the agent self -- its ideas and memories -- is projected on it. There is choice in imagination and remembrance but dreams are almost always involuntary.
Revolutionaries are as imaginative as they are liars and manipulators. The bid is still to attain the alpha position, whether as cult leaders of a new age papacy, top dogs of their new fields of kingdoms, or kingmakers with power without the responsibility. It all begins with their imagination and what they remember of life about them.
Even most sincere radicals, say, Gandhi or Archbishop of Canterbury a millennium ago, present a call. What follows and actually happens is a madness, usually complicated by the presence of the mobbing agent selfs around them, through whom they must move forward. It almost never brings an end to the slave economy. It chips off but leaves the slavery intact.
Dreaming is a different phenomenon in comparison. It actually tilts the status quo by either accentuating the oppression upon one's soul or allowing one to soar into liberated and happy being. And, one dreams of all things in between, with and without the space-time-species based rules of "reality."
Most people who rail against economic slavery have the image of the economic masters at heart, which they want for themselves. Anarchists are great examples of men who want the means and the opportunities, and the universal freedom to breakdown the rules. They achieve little beyond exponentially adding to the chaos and misery for people all over.
To me, as in my dream, an end to slavery means the freedom and opportunities to tend to beauty, create happier and knowledge nurturing environs, families, marketplaces, fields, schools and colleges. The "real" despair from how things are does not impair the dreamt beauty of future, to usher which I will do everything within my means.
Happily, in India, people are already availing free banking facilities, cheapest internet, transportation, food, education, medicare, gas, public funded crop insurance, minimum agriculture support prices, and are now even talking of universal basic income. There are miles to go...but there is a dream behind what is at work here, exerting hard at not being bogged down by ideological argumentation and at persisting to doing things bit by bit, changing the world in which people live.
Some dreams are so people centred, so filled with beauty, goodness and truth, that they seem God-sent.
