Does anyone know any French Revolution documentaries, TV series, or movies that don't side implicitly with a long dead 18th century absolutist monarch? (hexbear.net)

The French and Haitian Revolutions are one of the most fascinating and momentous events in what passes for western history, and yet the way liberals treat these subjects is just downright atrocious

While the horrific counter-revolution of 1776 is glorified, the French Revolution is treated like some ugly step-child they'd rather keep locked in the basement

I'm sick of it, I just want to learn about a cool-ass revolution without power-worshipping liberals throwing a conniption
