Leftist echo chamber Reddit is embracing the French revolution in an attempt to resist President Donald Trump. The platform, notorious for its censorship of conservatives, is allowing posts calling for violent political revolution here in the USA.
Specifically they are saying it's time for the style of the French “Reign of Terror” to spread virally in the early weeks of the Trump administration.
“They want 1939 Germany, let’s give them 1789 France” is popping up all over the platform, with “1789 France” spiking in Google searches and on X Radar, a feature on X that lets users monitor keywords and track conversations.

The reference to the French Revolution describes the time period between 1789 and the late 1790s, and when French citizens “radically altered their political landscape, uprooting centuries-old institutions such as the monarchy and the feudal system,” History.com notes.
“The upheaval was caused by disgust with the French aristocracy and the economic policies of King Louis XVI, who met his death by guillotine, as did his wife Marie Antoinette,” the site adds.
The historical website goes on to note that while this “degenerated into a bloodbath during the Reign of Terror, the French Revolution helped to shape modern democracies by showing the power inherent in the will of the people.”
It is clear, from numerous postings, they actually want bloodshed:

And yet they're 100% convinced they're badass.
