Was the French Revolution justifiable?

The French Revolution got rid of the old traditional monarchy. The old monarchy was very crooked and the people had no right to choose who would be their leader. But the revolution brought Enlightened thinking, and democracy started to gain momentum. The people sacrificed in order to get their way, but it was a good sacrifice, as they got a fair way of government, where people can get to elect their leader, and they don’t get chosen because of their social status or how rich they are. The French Revolution played one of the key roles that brought Europe democracy, and got rid of the old monarchy. But during the Reign of Terror, it didn’t help much causes. It killed so many people for no reason, and the government tried to kill people that were considered traitors to the country. They even changed the religious aspect of France. They made up their own days of the week and even made their own gods. Their week lasted 10 days so people don’t remember when Sunday is.

But besides the Reign of Terror, the revolution brought democracy, which got rid of the estate system and also made people have equal rights. The nobles in the monarchy had more rights than the citizens. Can you imagine the world today where we don’t have equal rights and we have 3 estates? It’s hard to imagine a world divided like that.

Creating a Positive and Safe Digital Footprint

Paragraph On How To Be Safe

A way to be safe is not to expose photographs of yourself publicly. People can manipulate the photos and make you look like something that you are not. Also do not press links from other people unless you know they sent the link, or verified with them that they sent the link. Because there are cases where your friend get’s hacked, and you press a link that gets you hacked as well. Also think thoroughly before you post something, and make sure that you feel comfortable in what you are posting.

Another way to be safe is by reading over messages before you send them. Make sure that what you are saying is not damaging to you or others reputation. Because nowadays, people can just take screenshots and can use it against you in many scenarios.

Why Did I Choose A Cloud?

I chose a cloud as my picture, as people call the internet “The Cloud” and also because all of the internet and social media go together to make a cloud. Like a normal cloud, it can be grey and cause chaos, but also it could clear up and be good, and have a positive effect on our lives. Social Media is a blessing and a curse. It is a blessing as it can help us communicate with family overseas, and also to text friends. It is a curse because some people can hack and access other people’s personal information, and can play with your account and pretend that they are you.

Core Competency Reflection

I always use Critical Thinking when I am surfing the internet. I always use logic if the website is safe, or if there are pages that lead to unsafe sites. When I receive emails, I always read who the sender is, and if I can trust them. I always ask the other person if they sent me the link on purpose, because they might be hacked and they use the person’s account to hack other people.
