Far from it. France deposed their tyant, USA installed a tyrant.

We basically need to depose [Name Redacted] just like France did in 1789

Lets be real, France didn't have a great track record of picking winning leaders.

So in our store-brand French revolution, we're probably gonna go through quite a few Robespierres.

I keep pointing out that it took 15 years from France getting rid of a king to giving the exact same powers to an emperor.

People seem to think the guillotines came out and everyone's problems were solved. Just like they seem to think if a few CEOs get assassinated, corporations will put people over profits.
