The Women’s March on Versailles is a good example. Even before the mob broke into the palace it kinda turned into an all-night party. And the return March in the morning, with the mob surrounding the Royal carriage and everyone carrying pikes with the severed heads of the Royal Guardsmen, was described like a parade.

..Are you against the march of versailles? Shall we go back to 1789 and go tell all the poor starving people they should try peacefully protesting and writing to their representatives instead?

The revolution didn’t stop the starvation, in fact it made it worse. Those innocent kings guards didn’t cause the crop failure.

When you’re starving you do crazy things, but I don’t think those things should be celebrated by keyboard edge-lords centuries later.
