it wasn't france - it was the intellectual "elites" of the late 18th century, which included intellectuals of french, italian, german, and many other origins. the same people who made the enlightment, the encyclopedia, and the french revolution. the fact that some groups of people (notably, the descendants of the english imperialists) are still debating these things today only serves as proof of their (maybe subconscious) racism, or just insularism.
- B1FF_PSUVM 8y agoHave an upvote, and let me point out that those people were also responsible for a whole lot of murder in the name of "reason".
- qwerty343 8y agonicely said, as if contemporary british, americans, chinese, japanese, ..., people, were not murderous.
