This guy looks and acts like a complete monster. I hope these brave whistleblowers stay safe, and prevent him from getting this insane position.

While I understand what you’re saying, guillotines are symbolic of revolution against government.
They represent ONE unless I’m mistaken. Please point me to where an invading force of some sort has been defeated or representation by guillotine aside from France almost 300 years ago, please.
You’re acting as if the French revolution isn’t one of, if not THEE most iconic and widely referenced revolutions. It seems like you’re being obtuse.
It’s not at all if you’re talking about:
a) global political impact b) an expression of revolt by populace and THEN it’s effect c) the general recognized importance of it in general
The ones that ARE absolutely responsible for global change are:
The French Rev was minor in comparison.
“Global change”
I said iconic and widely referenced.
The French Revolution has second billing, after the American Revolution, on the wikipedia page for “revolution”.
I don’t care that you think it was minor due to the actual global impact on society. We are in a comment thread on lemmy where a guy made a joke and reference to what is indisputibly one of the most referenced revolutions in all of history.
The guy told a joke that made perfect sense to everyone who read it, except you, apparently. How you can continue to argue against the majority on something that is defined by the majority- I do not know.
Please. The French Revolution did have global impact in its own right, full stop. OP is being obtuse.
Invasion? What do you mean? The guillotine defeated the monarchy, not an invading force.
