@fatsam the not nice way was guillotines last time around

@pipe_dreams @fatsam The “last time”? The last time in my cultural sphere was when the people rose up and killed all of the feudal landlords that oppressed them. And then a bunch of other shіt happened that makes it hard to talk about with outsiders, but personally, I see the mass execution of landlords to be a net positive for society.

@enoch_exe_inc @fatsam I was talking about the French revolution where the nobility was killed en masse. Same principle. It was the next thing I could think of from my cultural background.
Same principle.
To be clear I do not condone violence of any kind against anyone and above example ended in extremely bloody dictatorship.Not what we want. Pacifist here
But I don't care at all about riots and property damage they need to learn the hard way it seems.They don't hear our pleas on their yachts.

@pipe_dreams @enoch_exe_inc @fatsam The French Revolution happened a long time ago, and there are other, more successful revolutions that actually accomplished more than eventually restoring the monarchy multiple times or getting an Emperor instead of a King. For example, the Chinese Revolutions…the first of which got us the only liberal-democratic elections ever and he declared himself emperor shortly afterwards.
