A Comm for Historymemes

My assertion is not "after the American Revolution all progress was done because things were fixed." Obviously there were still massive crimes and inequalities under the post-revolutionary government (including The Big One.) My assertion was that the American Revolution made things better for the people who fought the revolution, formed a better state of being than the one they had under English rule. The brits were killing and displacing native people, too. All those pre-revolutionary cities where they were having meetings about liberty used to be where natives had been living.

I wasn't saying my examples made "the world" a better place. I'm just saying it was the answer for the people doing the fighting. Like I say I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying it's not directly related to what I was trying to say.
