The intolerable Acts fueled the American Revolution because the already bad relationship with Britain was made wayyyy worse. Instead of shutting the Americans up it mainly just p*ssed them off more. It was already tough to get by in early colonial times but the intolerable acts made it 1000x worse.
The reason Cronus ate his children was because he was afraid that one day his children would grow strong and try to overthrow him. Hope this helps.
