Behold the output of our elite institutions of higher learning. I guess whatever exposure the students had to the French Revolution ended in 1792. Another so called journalists did not even know the dates of the American and French revolutions as she claimed the American Revolution was inspired by the French Revolution.

Presstitutes are in full idiocracy mode now AND there is no “editorial review” to fact check their writers’ pieces for timeline, sources, etc.

Given the mofos are historical ignits, they forgot that their heads were also chopped off when all was said and done with the French Revolution.....

The french revolution was antifa on steroids, and run by about the same caliber of people. They quicky dispatched anyone they didnt like, set up thought police and then beheaded the people who got them imto that mess, which lead to napolean rising to power, which got him eventually exiled.. sheeeese, There people are dumber than rotted fence posts!

They should realize revolutions eat their own. Maximilien Robespierre for example

French Revolution? Bring back the Guilletine. That will solve a lot of the problems.

One of the managers at our work once had her staff all wear berets as it got closer to Bastille Day and sent around an email crowing about how their revolution inspired ours. With great relish I immediately corrected her. She was such a ditz. Annoying Francophile and typical lib who thought everywhere was better than the U.S.

Don’t forget-the French Revolution got them Napoleon I- and a bloodbath that lasted more than 20 years involving all of Europe, Britain, the Dominican Republic and Africa (including strife over the whole globe where the Europeans had to defend trade and travel).

It was twenty years of a nearly non-stop recruiting, fighting, dying and a ruinous drain on resources

These latter-day Robespierres would have served themselves better by studying history rather than indulging in the stupidity of 21st century groupthink.

>> Their defenses of the French Revolution led to stern rebukes from those who remember how that revolution ended up. <<

Even Joe Biden isn’t THAT old. ;-)

Yet another reason that history is no longer taught.

You don’t have to worry about the horrific mistakes of the past if you’re ignorant, and the leftists in the street are perfect examples of those leftists.
