This question of strategy and tactics in relation to the ruling class comes up again and again throughout history. In the late 19th century in Russia, there were similar kinds of attacks on individual members of the nobility, culminating in the killing of a czar, Alexander II. This led not to a surge in working people’s movements, but to a brutal crackdown that undermined the workers’ movement for decades. It was not the ideas of anarchism or methods of terrorism that led to the overthrow of capitalism for the first time in history, in Russia in 1917. It was genuine Marxism, which based itself on building the organized power of the working class to fight for revolutionary change.
What we need is to eliminate the for-profit system — capitalism — altogether.
