The French and Haitian Revolutions are one of the most fascinating and momentous events in what passes for western history, and yet the way liberals treat these subjects is just downright atrocious
While the horrific counter-revolution of 1776 is glorified, the French Revolution is treated like some ugly step-child they’d rather keep locked in the basement
I’m sick of it, I just want to learn about a cool-ass revolution without power-worshipping liberals throwing a conniption
sorry but i don’t think you’re going to find any film remotely acceptable in the english language. the british loathe the revolution because [they are british], the americans loathe it because it was UNCIVIL and MEAN to Sweet Baby Lafeyette.
you’re going to have to read a book, i don’t have a pick for “definitive tome” on France but Black Jacobins and The Common Wind ain’t terrible for Haiti
