lmao

gotta love the leftist chaos

actually i hate it, but like people never get it

During the case of revolutions, what are usually things that would start or incite a riot, that would be the beginning of the revolution historically? And during a revolution who or whom would usually be the leader of those group or groups that would be a part of yhe revolt?

I’m trying to understand the nature of revolutions and riots because I’m planning for DnD lol

sure thing, comrade

😳

I barely know the russian revolution that lead to the Soviet Union. All I know about that was that the majority was proletariat. Farmers, poor workers. But also the petty burgoise, and was lead by some academics. Am I rigt about that?

How did it go for the americans? The spanish? The french? Etc etc

I know Very little about all these. For the americans all i know was that t had a lot to do with taxation

there were a few things for the americans

Taxation, and a lack of local government representation

for one, it was felt that they had to defend themselves from indian raids and warring, so why are they paying for the empire? and also, the lack of voting rights, and also, the forcing of locals to host british troops

i think the last one was what finally tipped a lot of people over the edge

Not to mention being ruled over by some cunt they didnt even know 7,000 miles away

and also british soldiers stationed in the colonies, if they committed a crime they were whisked away to be tried in england

Where they were aquitted, ofc

yes

Because stinky colonial peasants

The start of the american revolution was throwing the tea in the harbor eight?

I believe thats as the catalyst to the test, is thats right?

Boston Massacre

THEN the other stuff

British troops fired on unarmed colonials who were protesting the imports tax

Which was imposed to fund a war the colonials wanted no part in, hence why they left Europe

Oh!

And the whole revolution was done mostly by ”the proletariat” right? Farmers, inner city workers, etc? But also landowners?

I don’t know hiw the US looked at this time. Most were agricultural workers with their own land right? Or did most live in large cities?

Landowners funded it, proletariat carried it out

Till the french started giving us guns/training/artillery/loans

Mostly farmers/sharecroppers. Yeah

I see. Seems pretty sane.

You could completely avoid all forms of politics/policy just by riding a wagon 40 or 50 miles away from the major cities

Which is why lots of englishmen/women moved to the US to escape the nonsense of Europe

Were there any people who were the ”leaders” of this, or was it just people banding together?

Ahhhh i understand

Banding together at first, till the continental army

When the colonies declared themselves impartial to british rule and cut ties with England

I see. So a large difference between this and the russians is that the landowners were on the workers side too

Did the americans have a large academic community at this time?
