Jacobin (Brian Gemma)

"The massacres hold too much death and too much destruction. Innocent people are being killed, and there is no purpose to the actions being committed." If I hear this one more time, I am going to be sick. The men in charge have a reason behind all of their decisions. If this is the cost to sustain a revolution, then so be it. The reward in the end will make the deaths look like nothing. When things start to go the Revolution's way, everyone will be all for it. When things go bad, everyone will be against it, so let them think what they want. They can think they're right, but they can't even make up their mind. I support whatever the people in charge decide to do because the most important thing is this Revolution. So what if some lives are lost. So what if something is destroyed. If the revolution turns out successful, which it will, all of the bad will be forgotten. Nobody will even remember that the bad even happened. When the Revolution turns successful, all of the deaths will be completely forgotten. The Revolution is what matters!

  1. We must remember the woman that are imprisoned and helplessly murdered by the means of the "Revolution"! No woman should ever be treated like they were and no Revolution will ever be worth if death is involved!

  3. Jacobin, I agree with some of the points that you bring up and disagree with some others. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely for the massacres and getting our way for the good of France. I believe that the massacres show that people will die and are dying to save France and help their own country. "The actions being committed" do have a purpose, which is to let the nobles and the King know that many measures of action will take place to get their way. You also say that if we win, then the deaths will look like nothing. But, the deaths of many people will always be remembered if a close family member dies from one of these massacres. Even if we win, the days of torture will always come back to haunt us. Such terrible memories cannot simply leave my memory. We should fight until we win and overthrow the king. We live in an unfair world right now and deserve equality among us.

  4. Revolution is not what matters, what matters is that I get out of this nasty jail cell. I'm not going to stay in here while our perfect French society is being ruined.
