Yeah, that wouldn't make very much sense. Far more revolutionaries have been on the guillotine than behind it.

Mostly put there by their fellow-revolutionaries.

Well, it's a high-stakes game. As Benjamin Franklin said, you hang together or your hang separately.

But far more put there by the state, make no mistake. It's not like there haven't been plenty of purges and organized campaigns of systematic repression from the state to the left. But you like ignoring that when we talk about fascist programmers not being able to present their widgets, don't you?

Purges come after the revolutionaries replace the state.
