The best part about 1917 is SD leaders told women not to turn out for International Women's Day protests in March because it was a lib-coded distraction and they wanted to save their juice for May Day. Instead the women turned out anyway and those protests literally sparked the revolution

France 1789 and Russia February 1917 were kicked off women related events. The Women's March on Versailles, and the (relatively) warm International Women's Day in 1917. (Really greatful for @mikeduncan.bsky.social for pointing this out during his Russia season of REVOLUTIONS)
