Hello there! I'm Star, History Peep and lover of all things Alexander Hamilton, Maximilien Robespierre, Antoine Saint-Just, Malcolm X, Oscar Wilde, and Vincent Van Gogh.

Here you will find the postings of an 18-year-old cynic whose interests center around history, music, 40s/50s vintage, comics, and cartoons.

Primary musical obsessions: The Used ♥, Emilie Autumn, Queen, Florence + The Machine, The Smiths, Edith Piaf, Michael Jackson, Patrick Stump, and The Temptations.

i don’t have the energy to deal with people who defend louis.

he could have helped the homeless mothers that were so emaciated that they couldn’t nurse their babies. he could have helped the old men left rotting in the rain and he could’ve fed his own citizens. but instead he wallowed in his own…

I agree completely. Louis royally (no pun intended) fucked up. But treating an opinion as unworthy simply because the person expressing it is more interested in the monarchy than the revolutionaries is counter-productive.  You don’t have to agree with something to enjoy it. I, for instance, do not condone the majority of the Terror, but I understand and am intrigued by it.
