I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the Bourbons are out again and France is being terrorized (at time of writing) by its fifth republic.

This is gratuitously snarky and adds little to the discussion.
What's the post in saving up all this karma if I can't spend it on enjoying myself once in a while?

Is that the HN equivalent of “what’s the point of having Fuck You Money if I don’t say “fuck you”?”

It would be a bigger problem if there was a productive discussion.
Tunisia is now arguably better off, but even beyond that: the longterm effects of such things aren't always immediately apparent. The French Revolution led to terror, then to an Empire and devastating wars and finally back to the old monarchy, but it cast a very long shadow on the 19th century and beyond.
