Its funny since lots of revolutions only really succeeded due to another state actor involved. Imagine being against the Haitian revolution because you think its just some psyop by the Americans to harm the French
edit: To clarify the I don't know if the Haitians NEEDED the US, but the US did help
The Hatian revolution didn't really succeed either. Dessalines basically just re-enslaved everyone but they all started to slowly starve because nobody would trade with them after the rampage.
Everyone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman!
Immigrants get the job done. As an aside though Lafayette was kind of badass.
Honestly, I think that's true for most of them.
