Explanation: “We should bring back the guillotine” or similar is a common internet quip in response to billionaires doing billionaire things, when in reality the guillotine was invented to provide equal and humane deaths to people of all classes, and from there it was always a tool of the state rather than the people. Not the best euphemism for “we should depose the bourgeoisie.” In fact plenty of Revolutionary justice folks were themselves offed by the guillotine during the Terror.
Ah yes. I’m sure the starving peasants who did the uprising was very concerned about the treasury and not avoiding starvation by misrule.
Just in case, which uprising are we talking about here?
The French revolution
Which part of the calling of the Estates General was a violent uprising again?

Debates tend to be less dumb when you actually know what you’re talking about, so you should try that next time.
Same mate. Read up on the French revolution and you will get insights :-)
Please don’t throw stones when you obviously live in a glass house.
The part following the calling of the Estates General. You know, the actual Revolution. You seem intently focused on the phases just prior to the actual Revolution for some bizarre reason.
