The sad thing is that her child the boy, the little boy her last child died such a really cruel and sad death. He didn’t deserve it because he knew nothing about what was going on so he shouldn’t have been treated so poorly her oldest child wishes her daughter actually lived well, and it surprised me that she didn’t try to look for her brother, but also makes you wonder about Marie Antoinette. She was a child when she became a ruler. She wasn’t knowledgeable and I understand back in the day people died so young, but I don’t think she was ready.
@@vishalsaroj160 he said why in the video. They pretty much wanted someone to blame, so they blamed Marie Antoinette for their sh*tty economy when in reality, she had nothing to do with her sh*tty circumstances. However, people always need someone to blame, so they blamed her & came up with the false quote that she said, which in fact, she never actually said. It’s pretty much like rage baiting so that the citizens could hate Marie Antoinette
@roses-of-the-romanovs Again, the dark truth is that Marie Antoinette was an innocent woman who was put in a sh*tty circumstance. She had nothing to do with the economies circumstances, but they blamed her b/c they needed someone to be angry at.
She was 9 years old when they made up that phrase. Not to mention they would make up rumours of her r*ping her son, sleeping w/ many men, and other lies to defame her. She only spoke up in anger when they suggested she slept w/ her son. It's recorded that she condemned them for even thinking that happened and when she spoke up, they backtracked. Her last words were also an apology to the executioner; she had accidentally stepped on his foot when passing by him for her execution.
France at that time aside from the aristocracy was very poor. From what I remember, the triggers of evolution started when the French majorly sponsored the American revolution against the British which led to the country's bankruptcy. Louis XV had to increase taxes because of this but the problem is that he didn't want to impose taxes on the aristocracy and the nobility which had the most capacity to pay fearing that he might lose the nobles' favor, instead he doubled or tripled the taxes of the poor. The rich became richer, the poor became poorer. The inequality and injustice plus Marie Antoinette's insensitivity from her lavish lifestyle and her famous line "Let them eat cake" angered the masses hence the revolution.
What is even sadder is that “let them eat cake” became more and more popular phrase especially in pop culture and everyone believes that Marie Antoinette said that and she even is associated with that quote („let them eat cake she says, just like marie Antoinette”, 2006 film and etc.)
Okay, now I know some stuff in this is click-baity, especially with the clearly AI-generated art. I timestamped it here: 0:25 Guy in red coat, face looks weird af. 1:49 SEVERAL faces in this scene looks bizarre - the lady's looks weird, the dude behind her, barely has one, the guy with the green bow (or whatever it's called) has none, the two spoons on the table are merged into one, both the light-blue-haired & white-haired guy's hand is missing the rest of his fingers... and probably other stuff I missed. 2:10 Similar issues. 2:19 Lady on the left: wtf is up with her left elbow? Also, broken fan. 2:34 Lady in the background has a smudged face. 2:42 FREAKING SIAMESE TWINS WITH THE GIRLS IN THE GREEN DRESS. THEY'RE SHARING A BODY. Also, girl in orange dress is missing an arm. 3:17 Sheep on the near furthest left has a weird-looking head, and missing eyes. 3:23 Left to right: Red-haired girl has a smushed face, black-haired girl in green dress has no eyes, dude in middle is missing his left eye, and dude on the right is missing both. 3:29 Wtf is sleeping on the hay patch? Also, weird creature meant to be a goat walking past the opening. 3:33 Several people missing eyes and mouths. 3:36 Do the guys on the left and middle even have arms or just those stumps? 3:46 Old guy missing pupil. 4:17 Dude in the cell's face looks jank. 5:00 Several townspeople's faces look weird with their faces and eyes. 5:17 Big dude's fists have six fingers in them, I counted. 5:21 First dude on the right, eyes look weird. 5:41 Guy in white holding a gun (next to the guy in the main center) looks like he's missing a head, but it could be obscured, it's hard to tell. 5:48 Women's flesh club fist. 6:10 Looks like in the very center, on the left, looks like she's being suffocated by a shopping bag. 6:33 Marie's left eye is melting. 6:39 Why is there a dude wearing a dress and a top hat like that on the right? 😂 6:46 - Lady on the left has no face and must scream, girl in the middle cracked her face. ... JESUS this took me almost 20 minutes to pinpoint. 😵💫
There is also a greek version: let them eat padespani. (It's the cake-like filling between the layers of cream.) In fact the French expression she used (the original one) is: "Qu'ill mangent brioche" (let them eat brioche).
You know...I always wondered if things would have turned out different has Marie actually been a good or exceptional student as well as kept home an extra year or two in order to be well versed in the etiquette of the French court before oging.
she'd have been blamed anyway. There was 150 years of hatred between the Austrian Habsburgs and the Bourbons at the time of her marriage. She was hated for what she represented (first the unpopular Austrian alliance to the Austro-phobe French court, then with that hatred, it became easy to portray her as the cause of all France's ills), not any skills she did or didn't have. In fact, her attempt to bring "changes" to the French court (overseeing the education of the pages, seating wives next to their husbands at dinner instead of segregating the sexes, trying to ensure that maids-of-honour/ladies-in-waiting were not seen as "sluts in silks") were all absolutely reviled by the courtiers who complained of her "meddling". She had no political power, and was allowed none*. In fact, it was a known fact that the fastest way to END someone's political career was to say they had the queen's backing/support/friends with her Majesty. *ironically the reality was the exact opposite of what was believed by the public
yes, that's why she donated her "wins" to institutes like the Maison Philanthropique, a charity in Paris that cared for the blind; played a part in funding France's first school for the deaf (modelled on one her brother established in Vienna). After she gave birth to the dauphin, she gave the money the king gave her as a present to the "midwives of Paris" guild (ICR what it was called) so that they would be able to continue their work helping women in the slums of Paris. She scandalized the French court by taking her elder son, Louis Joseph, to visit Paris' equivalent of London's Foundling Hospital to visit the children who had been abandoned by their parents (ironically, their care was paid for from the queen's allowance). I am so tired of the bullshit that Antoinette was a "bad person" because she supposedly singlehandedly spent France into debt. There were others at court (Louis XVIII and his wife, Philippe Égalité and his sister, the Princesse de Condé) who ALL spent far more than she did, but had the "privilege" of being on the "right side of history". For a comparison: Antoinette's spending between her husband's coronation in 1774 and 1789 was equal to what Josephine de Beauharnais spent in a single YEAR while she was empress. Josephine would buy diamonds without even bothering to ask the price, cashmere shawls for her dog to sleep on, not to go into the amounts she spent on fashion, art and her private life etc etc. But Josephine is constantly given the benefit of the doubt in saying "but she was a woman who had known poverty and was now making up for it", while Antoinette is portrayed as "a spendthrift whose waste toppled a regime"
Using South Africa as an example: the middle class is not only rich enough to not worry about the elites' opulent lifestyles, as their own quality of life is comparable to the elites, but it's also large enough to fund the various welfare programmes that the elites in government use to keep the poor in check.

Not bad. But I don't see what the dark truth is. Besides, Marie Antoinette never said "Let them eat cake" :)
What is the real truth then??Why does everyone quote this line with Marie Antoinette ?

"Let them eat cake"
Hearing that made the commoners even more angry, because they thought Queen MA was considering them as PIGS.
I subscribed. Love the imagery and narration.
Okay, now I know some stuff in this is click-baity, especially with the clearly AI-generated art. I timestamped it here:

The narration and the sounds in the background are wonderful. Earned a subscriber! Can't wait to see more!!
There is also a greek version: let them eat padespani. (It's the cake-like filling between the layers of cream.) In fact the French expression she used (the original one) is: "Qu'ill mangent brioche" (let them eat brioche).
She never said let them eat cake. It was a story made up by the revolutionaries
fall of french monarchy but the rise of Napoleon
May one ask what ai software tools you use to make such works of art?
Whats with the random anime theme?
You know...I always wondered if things would have turned out different has Marie actually been a good or exceptional student as well as kept home an extra year or two in order to be well versed in the etiquette of the French court before oging.

I'm told she spent entire fortunes in gambling.

I really find it hard to understand. MA was no worse than modern -days elite, yet nobody seems to rebel against them, some are even worshiped
Using South Africa as an example: the middle class is not only rich enough to not worry about the elites' opulent lifestyles, as their own quality of life is comparable to the elites, but it's also large enough to fund the various welfare programmes that the elites in government use to keep the poor in check.
