You do know what happened *during* or *after* the French and Russian revolutions, yes?
They were bloody, millions were killed.
We're still dealing with the consequences of the Russian revolution with the war in Ukraine. Not to mention the Holodomor.
The aftermath of the French revolution was chaos and blood. See Robespierre and the "Reign of Terror".
It wasn't until later that the democracy of the French republic emerged.
Revolutions, by and large, just replace the previous authoritarian regime with another equally or even more oppressive regime.
