No I don’t.
I’ve known for a decade that the Left wants the French Revolution, and I’ve read the Economist long enough to know they are being played for fools.
The French Revolution resulted in a brain drain that lasted for well over a century as a result of all the smart people who had not fled during the persecution of the Huguenots being put to the guillotine during the Revolution.
This is top down. Just like the inquisition. Deal with it.
The Inquisition was a judicial process, it was a court with strict rules of evidence, you may not like the outcome, but the statement is factual. Your French Revolution was just a bunch of proto-communist killers.
