Correct. Those people, who were doing all that anyway. I'm not saying they were good people, but their revolution had nothing to do with the indigenous genocide. I do know that a lot of people were hurt or killed from "being too apologetic to British forces." I don't personally know enough about the French revolution to know about the amount of innocent casualties, but 30,000 doesn't surprise me.
Things are bad over here, and they're only getting worse. If I end up being one of the people killed during the - at this point - inevitable uprising, whether from fighting or from being mistaken as being too friendly with the corrupt elite, at least I could be happy that there would be a light at the end of the tunnel for those who do survive.
