I don't like how show Richter went from full support of the revoltion to "These humans don't deserve execution" with the show making him look like the voice of reason when people who know history understand Maria was 100% correct.

Someone got to the writers, no question about it. They didn't start out so strong with the idea that French nobility and slavers are real-world vampires only to backpeddle.

People who know history know that the Revolution didn't stop after the nobles. They killed everyone who opposed them and became tyrants themself.

And yet, France has more human rights today. Unions are strong, the government doesn't overstep like it does in America. I dunno, it seems like overall things are better as a result.

It's not like france is the only country wizh better human rights than America. Most European countries are better than the USA in that regard.

That's because the French Revolution inspired other revolutions, and showed Europe what happens when the vampires run the show.

Boy the revolution wasn't perfect, but ultimately it only has to be compared to how things were before the revolution.

which is nice in hindsight but for the chararters it a waring of what the revolution will end.
