Not only does it glorify the (((French revolution))) but it also tries to paint criminal behaviour such as thievery as being justified if one is poor.

Edit I mistook Le Miserables for "A tale of two cities", which is actually lowkey based. That one depicts the Revolutionaries as savages who simply kill people for no reason and the aristocrats to be pretty normal upstanding citizens.
Well obviously, because its sung from the perspective of the revolutionaries. "Look Down" is sung from the perspective of the prisoners. And "I Dreamed A Dream" is sung from Fantine's perspective. It doesn't mean that the play overall is necessarily endorsing that perspective.
Why is there no song sang from the perspective of the monarchists? why is the only law enforcer made to look bad? Why is society made to look bad under the monarchy rule?
The play is made to make the revolutionist look good
Well, theres an accurate version of that song https://youtu.be/nPDH4lZB6HU
