Hat tip to the #RevolutionsPodcast for the upsettingly relevant history lesson. I had never heard of this Wilson or the Ten Tragic Days. I am guessing Mexicans do learn this. https://podcasts.apple.com/ma/podcast/revolutions/id703889772

1.14a Supplemental- The War on Christmas — Revolutions

After the Puritans came to power they tried to abolish Christmas. Seriously.

Thanks to history writer and podcaster #MikeDuncan for mentioning Tarleton on the wonderful #RevolutionsPodcast , causing me to say aloud to myself: “Wait, General Sir Banastre Tarleton, 1st Baronet like the tree!?” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Duncan_(podcaster)

Listening to the #RevolutionsPodcast read out my neighbor Tom’s Declaration of Independence. It is incredible how completely this captures the present moment, from trade to taxation to military occupation to legislation and the justice system. George is laughing somewhere. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/revolutions/id703889772?i=1000279269717 #USPolitics

Going back and listening to the #RevolutionsPodcast archive. I am horrified at this bit, that England was still running a national mandatory tithing system, a holdover from Catholicism, but also some private landlords had gained this right to collect tithes as a kind of state mandated entitlement. This broke an iteration of parliament in 1653 during the revolution https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barebone's_Parliament #TaxReform #landlordism

Continuing my #Andor obsession, I’m watching yet another interview with showrunner Tony Gilroy on John Stewart’s weekly show and he recommends the #RevolutionsPodcast https://sites.libsyn.com/47475 #history #StarWars
Revolutions

When you use the #RevolutionsPodcast as a basis to extend a kids sf movie franchise, that was in part based on the Viet Con, you are bound to depict scenes that resonates or even mirror events in our world .
#Andor is not our history foretold but a fuzzy mirror we can use to grasp the here and now. It was built using some of the same things our current surroundings were
