Reminder that our founding fathers were extremely wealthy and well connected elites of their times and that every revolution ever in history only ever even stands a chance of succeeding if a chunk of the elites back it. They were NOT at all some rowdy bunch of rednecks with guns like is sometimes portrayed, but well organized and well connected landed gentlemen who even held some of the highest ranks in the military and were able to form a shadow government, organize alliances with other world powers like France and Spain, and muster up a national army.

Ignore fedbait feelgood shit like this.
