They were singing a list of famous Left Wing democidal maniacs, and the UN censored it. Wow.

Don’t know what Marie Antoinette is doing on that list though. Where’s Robespierre and the architects of the Vendee massacre?

That is just what I was thinking. What in the world is Marie Antoinette doing on that list. I doubt if she ever had a single person executed. She might have been ignorant of what was going on but I doubt she had the power to do anything about it even if she was not.

She was just the icing on a cake.

If ever a woman with no power no influence was given a bum rap by history - it was Marie Antoinette. She was basically hated for being a foreigner “Autre-chienne”- that foreign b*tch - for having nice things bought FOR HER with money she had no control over (the diamond necklace incident) - and being the wife of a despised monarch who was about to have his head cut off - and her as well.

I can see why the French Revolution needed to make her out to be everything she was not - but do we still need to buy their propaganda.

I am as anti-Royalist as they come - but really.

And she never did say “let them eat cake” - that particular smear was used before she ever came to France on a different target.
