Short post concerning a fed up for a category of people including certain politicians or certain people: there are several films on the Vendée war. Without denying the horrors of Turreau or Carrier (including revolutionaries Billaud Varennes who wanted to have him executed for that or Robespierre who wanted to have Carrier executed for his drownings), I love the double standard which consists of not mentioning the massacres of prisoners of Jaffa, the oblivion of the fight of independance of Haiti, the massacres of slaves in Guyana or Haiti (it's strange there are fewer films on this period), or the fact of trying to justify the repressions of former slaves in those times by saying that they were not left out of killing white people, the reestablishment of slavery by putting out the false argument of pragmatism or that it was in his time. Okay, but in this case it is an invitation to justify the massacres in Vendées by saying that the Vendées committed massacres in Machecoul, and the fact that France was in a hellish situation (even more so than the departements of Outre Mer ) therefore that it is “pragmatism”, and the fact Louis XIV was not above carrying out more violent repressions so it was on the time that revolutionnaries make repression. Can these people can be more consistent? The worst is that a politician Philippe de Villiers advocates the collapse of statutes like Robespierre and advocates a genocide of Vendée. Okay, if he wants. In this case, if he wants his own ideology to be applied, his works must also be debunked because his father was part of the OAS and he paid homage to colonial Algeria. Finally, let him be consistent (but generally as the saying goes, a politician is never consistent, perhaps I should have put it in my post when politicians get involved in history) because he who is moral regarding the Vendée is less so regarding the colonies of France. Not to mention that I had the misfortune of going to Puy du Fou, great rubbish in terms of history, in addition to the bookstore side this site finds excuses for Napoleon while the mountain revolutionaries do not. Bizarre this double standard of morals… I am more and more desperate about the popularity of this site (although I believe in freedom of expression and that he has the right to say what he wants, it is frightening to see how many people believe his nonsense).

"This film tells a story from the French Revolution. The Revolution was a godless New Order born from the Enlightenment, which brutalized the established, Christian way of life with its deeply ironic motto: “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity”.

It was anything but. These three words bred a hatred and then outright persecution of Catholics, from its very own King and Queen, to the simple peasants in the countryside. The Revolution launched a reign of terror against Christians during which countless priests, nuns, and lay people were slaughtered, and the Revolution’s soldiers, marching through the country in “infernal columns”, scorched the earth where Catholic farmers raised crops, cattle, and families.

But in western France, the Vendee region, the Catholic peasants revolted. They formed their own armies and appointed their own generals. Of these generals, Francoise Charette was the most effective and well-known. He became the Revolution’s obsession, so successful were his tactics.

This film tells his story. It is the story of a man who became a hero not because he was born a saint, but because he was a Catholic. He found that in fighting for the Catholic Faith, the rest falls into place, and he became capable of even the ultimate victory—martyrdom—because the Revolution failed to corrupt his soul.

Please watch and share this video. Introduce your children to their new favorite hero. Spend an hour reminding your friends and family of the lengths to which men will go to stay Catholic and free.

*This film was released in France in 2023 by Puy du Fou. English subtitles were added by RTV to make the film accessible to the English-speaking world."
