The aristocrats were executed during the French Revolution. Some were smuggled out, and nobody leaves land, houses, wealth, etc behind without a darned good reason.

Here, we have the agenda of the globalist elite being carried out by BLM. Their platform includes open borders, which is great for driving down wages well past living wage territory. This results in the government picking up the tab for food stamps, healthcare, housing, childcare, for working people who can’t afford to live on what they are paid. This lowers payroll and increases profits.

So protestors give big splashy photo ops for the narrative that America is a terrible place to invest and manufacture, which limits job opportunities for people who live here, particularly in the cities.

The only violence against elites is against the statues of dead ones. There too though, the effect is on the living, and that effect is one more step toward erasing an inconvenient past, where people really did rise up against their oppressors, and win.

It’s the inquisition. This is an attempt to slap us back down. There has been growing populism popping up in all sorts of inconvenient places and the powers that be want things back the way they were, and that doesn’t end well for the workers.

If you think the French Revolution is an example of populism, then forget it. And I never said that the aristocrats were never killed during the French Revolution. Obviously, there were several that were killed, but going by the statistical figures, only 8% were killed by the Guillotine, while 30% were actually those of the Peasant class, and last I checked, 30% is MORE than 8%, and thus would make very clear that if anything the common people suffered even MORE than the aristocracy/elites.

Besides, the French Revolution targeted the Vendee for extermination, which is pretty much the epitome of the “common people” they claimed to be representing, all because they kept their faith in king and god (and ironically, the Vendee were far closer to the American Minutemen than the actual French Revolutionaries were). Heck, the French Revolution was ALSO for open borders as well, considering that part of the reason they created their Grand Army of the Republic was specifically to EXPORT the French Revolution, and most of the heads of that revolution outright HATED the concept of national sovereignty. Heck, the French Revolution was what inspired Marx and Lenin, both really huge globalists. So, no, if anything, the French Revolution is closer to globalist crap more than the Inquisition was. And by your logic, God’s also against populism and the common people as well due to outright incinerating him and his followers when he dared to even suggest allowing for populism: https://www.conservativenewsandviews.com/2020/06/18/clergy/korah-democracy-divine-aristocracy-israel/
