A first-hand account of Louis XVI's death by guillotine has been unearthed and will be auctioned off by Christie's in June. Charles Henri Sanson, the king's executioner, is the author of the letter, written within a few weeks after the January 21, 1793 beheading. Louis' wife Marie-Antoinette lost her head nine months later. ("Louis XVI was 'brave on the scaffold, wrote executioner")
@MopDMTBARTL You are so utterly milesd. Socialism is the polar opposite of what the elites have been doing to the world economy they created through militarism extortion over the last half century. They have fully dismantled Socialism in almost every country in which it took hold in partial or in more robust forms so they could push their Neoliberal free trade sweatshop-slum-sewage global Capitalist prison management system on us. Also, religion has little power these days. Wake the hell up.
