Men are born and remain free and equal in rights. Social distinctions may be founded only upon the general good.
Everybody stopped reading after the first sentence of course: everything necessary was there to make the Revolution the one of the petit-bourgeois, the peasants, the workers -- and yes, the women's and the black (slaves)'s too.
The conservative rightist Thermidorians knew it. By Year III, they took off from their re-made Declaration that first article, what makes the Revolution being the Revolution, and Boissy d'Anglas stated it was the source of all the "anarchy" that had prevailed for the five first years.
To sum up, the French Revolution, through the "failure" of the elites, sparked two hundred years of social unrest which pisses off the Old, Rich, White Men (and their allies who have privileges to gain through that power structure).
Because conservative jerks are often the frank enemies: like when Chaunu calls abortion the "White Plague".
That's why people hate the French Revolution. Because not everybody likes "those filthy *insert your choice of minority here*" to be their equals.
tl;dr: 1. Domenico Losurdo: Freemasons, Philosophers, Jacobins, Socialists, Marxists, Anarchists, Communists, Jews = here goes one big group of "Those Evil Others Wrecking Our Social Order" to ponder about, the other is straight from the Counter-Revolution through Fascism/Nazism, by passing through Maurras; 2. Large-scale atrocities cause traumas in the human society on the whole or in one or many groups and when not healed properly might lead to other atrocities as a response to the first trauma: my Ethical Humanist Conscience is horrified by this, but my Ruthless Avenger Of Oppressions Conscience is much less, so I'm very conflicted on this, as much as when I watch Inglourious Basterds; 3. conservative jerks are assholes who'd obviously hate the Fr Rev that took away the privileges they'd otherwise be securely enjoying without protest or any source of it.
