The French Revolution (1789) should be trending on moron social media spaces. Instead, you are watching make believe cop stories whilst fitting a face mask snugly over your child’s mouth and nose, sending them off to worship CDC, the new enemy of the people, NIAID– Babylon is falling, your medical facilities will burn. Begin the story. The Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
The really fucked up part about this badass book is the way Dickens has you crying for the goddamn aristocrats. How did this happen? I’m crying for Lucie? I want Miss Pross to kill the respectable Defarge woman? What is this bizarre world we live in?
The King and Queen get their heads lopped off! The doctors need to die, all aristocrats need to die, all noble men need to die! What the hell happened? How did Dickens manage this masterpiece of emotional MKULTRA literary mind fuck?
The Vengeance is The Hero! The red hat wearing revolutionaries are the heroes. The wine shop owners, the saw-mill operator, and all the Jacques in service to ridding the people of fuckery are the heroes.
Make no mistake, when the artificial race escapes to the safety of England, the French Revolution was lost. We are living/feeling the effects now.
The story would have been better if their carriage burned with all present inside.
You can’t better Charles Dickens in story telling. But we can dream of a day when all noble high-ups telling us to cover our faces get their heads chopped off. The Guillotine is magical.

Annotation
Chapter progress: 37.59%
Highlight: Now, let me recommend you,” pursued Stryver, “to look it in the face. I have looked it in the face, in my different way; look it in the face, you, in your different way. Marry. Provide somebody to take care of you. Never mind your having no enjoyment of women’s society, nor understanding of it, nor tact for it. Find out somebody. Find out some respectable woman with a little property — somebody in the landlady way, or lodging-letting way — and marry her, against a rainy day. That’s the kind of thing for you.

Chapter 753: XIX. An Opinion
Annotation
Chapter progress: 37.87%
Highlight: You see,” said Doctor Manette, turning to him after an uneasy pause, “it is very hard to explain, consistently, the innermost workings of this poor man’s mind. He once yearned so frightfully for that occupation, and it was so welcome when it came; no doubt it relieved his pain so much, by substituting the perplexity of the fingers for the perplexity of the brain, and by substituting, as he became more practised, the ingenuity of the hands, for the ingenuity of the mental torture; that he has never been able to bear the thought of putting it quite out of his reach. Even now, when I believe he is more hopeful of himself than he has ever been, and even speaks of himself with a kind of confidence, the idea that he might need that old employment, and not find it, gives him a sudden sense of terror, like that which one may fancy strikes to the heart of a lost child.

My heart is touched now, by many remembrances that had long fallen asleep, of my pretty young mother (and I so old!), and by many associations of the days when what we call the World was not so real with me, and my faults were not confirmed in me.
Notes: Reflections on life cycle.
Chapter 768: IX. The Game Made
Annotation
Chapter progress: 38.39%

Annotation
Chapter progress: 38.58%
Highlight: It was nothing to her, that an innocent man was to die for the sins of his forefathers; she saw, not him, but them.

Annotation
