Mao said that power comes from the barrel of a gun.

The gun just helps. Power comes from the will to do violence.

That's right. Mao was a vile Marxist but his worldview is relevant to the modern left. For him violence was axiomatic, he worshipped revolutionary war, and the guns were simply a means to that end. The will to violence was assumed since Marxist class struggle demands it.

Western constitutional government used to operate differently. Voting is a proxy for violence. By replacing ritualistic bloodshed with elections, society developed a concept of peaceful transfers of power. This is no longer the case.

By invalidating the vote, the globalists are employing Marxist strategy. They are challenging us to back down. As you said, without a will to do violence, all the guns in the world are meaningless. As are all the votes, if there is no superior force to enforce their legitimacy. This is a naked seizure of power. Stand back and stand by.
