Explanation: "We should bring back the guillotine" or similar is a common internet quip in response to billionaires doing billionaire things, when in reality the guillotine was invented to provide equal and humane deaths to people of all classes, and from there it was always a tool of the state rather than the people. Not the best euphemism for "we should depose the bourgeoisie." In fact plenty of Revolutionary justice folks were themselves offed by the guillotine during the Terror.
Do you want me to provide sources telling you that people starved, that the peasants rose up and executed their king in addition to a lot of other people during the french revolution?
What the hell is this? History revisionism regarding the french revolution, what is your goal here? Are you Louis XVI ghost?
The French revolution was absolutely a class war with the under class literally overthrowing the ruling class and executing them with a guillotine, which makes your meme wrong. No matter how you try to spin the French revolution this stands.
Jesus fuck man.
God, wow. You do realize the king was condemned to execution by a vote at the National Convention after a long trial right? The peasants didn't execute their king; the sitting government did.
Source? With sections and quotes, please. At the very least name one time period of the Revolution, because the Thermidorians definitely weren't executing the ruling class.
