The French Revolution paved the way for today's woke ideology. All human beings are equal and brothers. Freedom! The thing ruined France; there are fewer Frenchmen today than in 1779, and they are immersed in a frightful inundation of Africans and Arabs. The pox spread to England, and two centuries later, the Empire's civilizing enterprise is considered a great shame.
It rapidly led to the dissolution of the robust Jewish communities that had emerged from the dark Middle Ages, making it impossible to continue the effective survival strategies of solidarity and negotiation with the peoples and rulers around them. In pre-Revolution France, the Alsace Jews were oppressed yet rich and growing, and the Portuguese Jewish refugees had normalized their status and become very rich with tropical merchandise. After the "liberation", the ghettos and communities of Europe were dissolved, and the Jews achieved equal rights and assimilated. Nothing remains from the "old" European Jews, and the current population is newcomers from Eastern Europe and North Africa. If the French Revolution had been suffocated, there would be around 200 million French people today, and about 25 million European Jews (instead of half a million).
