It’s not an assumption when the story straight up tells you. The story thus far straight up says that all they’ve been doing is waiting for Twilight to return things back to how it was before all this madness happened. How would training to kill ponies benefit them if everything really did just magically go back to how peaceful and nonviolent it was before? It wouldn’t.
Also, you can’t just assume that they’ve been training for the day that they would rise up to try and kill the most OP pony in Equestria when there isn’t anything that’s shows or even talks about it happening. All that is given to us is that the resistance is very good at hiding, Twilight is not only OP but batshit crazy and that the resistance has been waiting for everything to go back to how it was before. Nothing else as of this page.
We don’t see any ponies training, wearing any kind of armor, carrying any kind of weapon or working on any means of defence. So far Spike is the only one in the resistance that’s even shown to have a weapon and it was recently destroyed by acid. If the resistance just shows up wearing armor and brandishing weapons of all kinds when they go to fight Twilight and her army of professional soldiers, then it’ll just be completely out of place. Nothing up to this point in the comic even suggests that they have anything like that at their disposal.
Their best chance to kill Twilight right now would have to be a stealthy sneak attack while Twilight is sleeping to even sand a chance. Not some army of pedestrians with shovels and pitchforks storming the castle.
Although I’ll admit, it would be funny to see an army of pedestrians storming the castle with shovels and pitchforks and actually win. Equestria thus far doesn’t seem to have the most competent Royal Guard training program. lol
