@Cassie Jones Not during the reign of terror. During that time, the jakobins had anyone sent to the guillotine. You could be sent there for stealing bread, speaking sympathetically towards the royal family, anything the jakobins saw as “not inline with the values of the revolution”. Thousands of people, who weren’t even criminals, or only minor criminals, were sent to die by guillotine. It was a brutal time for the people of france.

​@martynw9166 The last ax execution in Germany happened in 1935. In the hands of a skilled executioner it was very quick and efficient. But then unlike the axqq in the Tower of London, German execution ax or richtbeil was designed for the purpose. It had a short haft, the head had a broad cutting edge and weighed about 12 pounds. It was raised to shoulder height and the weight of the falling blade provided sufficient momentum to carry out the execution cleanly. Witness descriptions of ax executions state that from the moment the victim was handed over to the executioner and his assistants everything happened very quickly. I doubt you'd have been anxious for long.

Dr. Guillotine presented his new "machine" to the King, Louis XVI the year the revolution started, just months before it began. If memory serves, the King rejected his idea because the guild of executioners didn't like it. They thought it was too easy and would diminish their professional skills. And they weren't wrong. Once it went into operation at the height of the revolution, it proved that almost anyone could be an executioner.

[@aureliusmarcusantoninus3441]

Another story of machines taking away our jobs

[@MsClepsydra]

The device you're referring to is the breaking wheel, not the guillotine. Dr Guillotine wasn't the inventor, he was the one who proposed the executions should be more humane (meaning as painless as possible). In fact he didn't even like the mechanism was named after him and (unsuccessfully) tried to rename it. He was member of the committee that researched such matters and advisor to the National Assembly when the French Revolution started. The guillotine was designed during Louis XVI's time, however, and ironically he was the one who proposed the blade should be oblique. It was based on other European decapitation devices, and designed mainly by Antoine Louis (also physician and member of the committee), German engineer Tobias Schmidt, and the executioner Sanson who later wrote a memoir. The first (French) guillotine was used during the French Revolution, so Louis XVI wouldn't have been able to have a say.

Scribbe Boy You are correct. It was the equivalent of the Salem Witch Trials where you could lie about your neighbor talking bad about the newly formed French Republic and that person would be arrested, pushed through a sham trial, and be decapitated. Since the United States had just gained independence at the time and the French Revolution did this. The reputation of Democracy and its ideals like that of Liberty and everything else the United States declared at the time. Many of the monarchies that surrounded France at the time and their subjects were disgusted with how Evil and savage the Revolution was and actually all quarantined the ideology of Democracy and attacked France all at once which Napoleon fought back which made him gain power and led to a Napoleon led France later on. I left out MANY MANY details and events but it’s quite SICKENING AND SAD how the Revolution for freedom turned into a literal dictatorship(The Reign of Terror it was called) and how many people were publicly executed because the Revolution must of had an execution fetish.

She gave over $300k of her own personal allowance to various charities, financially supported numerous poor families, she established a home for women, she adopted 3 poor kids to be raised with her own, she had cottages built at Trianon so she could move poor families into them, she sold off royal silverware in order to purchase grain for poor families, she even had the royals eat cheaper grain so there was more for everyone else... She even designed a cheap, white dress for herself, because she didn’t like dressing up so fancily all the time, and she was still criticized for it. From day one, the French hated her and treated her terribly, using her as a scapegoat for everything that was wrong with pre-revolutionary France. Granted she’s not absolved from all responsibility, the idea that you can ignore so much truth and chalk her existence up to an implication of complete conceitedness is wild.

[@AeneasGemini]

@ran ran That's not entirely accurate, both she and the king were well aware of the starvation of the people. She herself was somewhat ambivalent, however the King actually did care. Louis XVI was actually very sympathetic (he was a strong believer in the values of the enlightenment), but his power was heavily restrained by an aristocracy that didn't want to lose power. It's a common mistake to think that kings had unlimited power, but no person rules alone and even your average king has to compete with the nobility for authority. Anyway, my point is that it wouldn't have made a difference even if she was the most compassionate person in human history and had the king wrapped around her finger, nothing would change.

[@AeneasGemini]

@@jasminejustice8129 Lots of wealthy people in the modern day donate money to charity, it's as much of a fashion statement as anything. In the modern day it's good because it's seen as a wealthy person portraying themselves as caring about causes, in Marie Antionette's day it was a show of Christian piety. My point is, she probably did some good, but it doesn't necessarily reflect her true character (we just don't know her motives enough to say that). I can imagine that being foreign didn't always make her popular, but you can't deny that despite her contributions her overall attitude towards the struggle of the poor (from some of the things she said) made her seem ambivalent at best. Not saying she was necessarily as evil as history likes to portray her, just that she was a woman who probably reflected the popular attitudes of her era and class. Which is to say that she was likely a lot less charitable and compassionate towards the poor than she needed to be, especially considering the volatility of those times.

[@jtho8019]

I was told that a condemned person agreed to be a guinea pig of sorts. A doctor in this era was curious as to whether this beheading caused instantaneous death and if not whether the condemned retained any consciousness and for how long. They devised a code where the beheaded person would blink in a certain sequence until they actually died with the doctor immediately holding the head up and observing it. Apparently the condemned person retained consciousness for a short while before actually dying. I forget how long they actually lived, but it was for a short time. I imagine there life would be flashing through their mind and hopefully getting right with their creator.

I’ve worked as a nurse in palliative care, and sometimes encountering death makes me vomit too. It’s like the presence of the spirit of death brushing past you makes you physically sick.

[@James2005.]

I could never work in a hospital, if I saw a bad bloody injury I would pass out and if someone died I’d have the same reaction as you, just puke my guts out

[@pinklady7184]

Starlight Barking you can easily acclimatise to all patterns of hauntings. Remember this, if you have previously shown respect and care to patients before their time of death, they will in spirit return you favours like protecting you. Therefore, you have nothing to fear or worry, that is, if you are a good person, a prayerful type. If you ever feel wind blasts inside hospital rooms, that is nothing for you to worry about. When a person dies and its soul makes wind blast inside room, just let go of your fear. That is just a soul leaving from one plane to another. It is soul projection or channel crossing. Stay in hospital and continue working as a nurse. When you sense shadows flitting from corner to corner of places, stop your worrying and pray for self-protection. Souls who flit in high speed cast shadows in air. It is really nothing to worry, if they are mild souls. Let them haunt in peace. When you find wandering souls or mild poltergeists, just always pray for God's mercy upon their souls. There are many broken souls who need nice prayers, not exorcism. When you pray for them, not against them, they will return you favours, their way of showing their gratitude. I live in haunted home with clandestine hauntings by mostly family ghosts and a spirit protector. I also work in a haunted workplace. Honestly, I feel 10000 times safer there than be alone with living dangerous people like stalkers, rapists, murderers, terrorists, etc. At home and work, I sometimes pick up somethings of hauntings. I always relax when the air is calm and serene, the air light and happy. When something is unsettling the air, it means I have an intruder in the proximity and my guardian makes winds inside rooms and through corridors and stairs. He removes all dangers from my path. He throws hardened criminals off their balance and sends them fleeing in fright. That spirit ensures my safety. He has previously saved my life over 20 times and responded to many emergencies like few heart attacks, brain haemorrhages, fires, choking, etc. He even once surprised a woman surgeon and nurses in a theatre where I was brought in for a vaginal cyst removal. He gave her confidence and guided her scalpel. The surgery went smoothly, while spirit eased my blood circulation during surgery. The surgeon extracted an enormous amount of cyst fats that was roughly 1000ml. After surgery, I awoke free of pain, no pains in the stitches. That surprised the staff. Over the next two weeks, I had still no pains and no infections appeared in the stitched area.

[@pinklady7184]

Valiantcat7780 I have witnessed few deaths in a local hospital. My late father died in peace. He was given morphine or relaxant and that helped reduce his fear of death. He had an easy death which wasn't painful or traumatic. I know what it is like to die, as I had NDE or Shared Death Experience. Today, my father's spirit haunts my workplace that was his in former life. I never think of my father as dead, as his spirit lives.

[@russscott8650]

I've been in 3 situations (nursing homes) when a relative has died. Most recent, my wife's grandmother. When she died, lying in bed, my father-in-law holding her hand... I said, "she's no longer with us." My wife went to get a nurse, looked for a pulse, checked her (lack of) breathing... pronounced dead within a minute after I knew. It was freaky, cause I felt her die.

[@starcorpvncj]

I visited a young woman in hospital with bowel cancer. 3 weeks earlier she looked healthy enough. I was with other people thank goodness. When I walked into the room my eyes met hers.
