Then do some thinking. You’re clearly not processing what’s being said. A whole bunch of different people with different beliefs that believed in No Kings all literally sat on the Left side of the room.

Some guy came out of nowhere and invented a new currency. One based on ideas that couldn’t work
The nobles on one side said “we have to maintain the status quo, despite that being impossible”. The nobles on the other side said “we have to accept our financial losses and find a new way forward”
There were no other groups in the room. They were all nobility
And the whole thing went on until the starving peasants broke in and brought out the guillotines
