Come on you don't need to go that far.
You can love the guillotine without liking the French.

Hey, the French are still more willing to fuck shit up in the name of correcting their government than the US is.

France in general does a lot of things right. Their whole open source movement is amazing! Just take a look at https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome and their tools like https://cryptpad.fr/
And politically as well though I can't pinpoint it to an exact article. Just the general vibe I got from them and the decisions I saw.

The French Revolution was ultimately a bourgeois revolution that signalled the transfer of power from aristocrats to capitalists. It's fine to enjoy the aesthetics of it but we will have to go further than the French did.
