Dickens' humanitarianism is two-sided, and he himself can't speak completely from the standpoint of a civilian. So the so-called humanitarianism refers to sympathy for the suffering of the ruled, such as what happened to Madame Defarge's family. But because of this, Madame Defarge hated the ruling class and took violent revenge in a clear-cut manner, which Dickens did not approve of. Therefore, we can admit that the image of Madame Defarge is a typical worker who resists oppression. But in her works, she is portrayed as a sad and hateful character who is blinded by hatred and does not distinguish right from wrong. This should be said to be an unconscious uglification of Dickens.

Dickens' humanitarianism lies in that the rulers should be kind to the people (Darnay's image), and the people should be tolerant, repay their grievances with virtue, and build a harmonious society.

In addition, I personally think that the most prominent feature of the novel is the combination of history and fiction. Twin cities refer to London, England and Paris, France. At that time, the Great Revolution had broken out in Paris, and it was shrouded in disorderly tyranny. Dickens also wanted to express a historic idea that Britain is now in a precarious situation. If there is no improvement, similar riots will always break out, and I hope the rulers will adjust their strategies. This should be regarded as a feature of literary thought.
