Robespierre was the only liberal who actually believed any of it beyond the profits part.

As a communist, I pay tribute to this man.

a revolutionary idealist dictator who got put in charge of a country in great societal and moral upheaval has to option :

-Roll with it. Get very secure about the legitimacy of his actions and the road to follow next.
-Convince himself that he must be better that the old tyrants and starts to fall in a "virtue-spiral" to try to be a good ruler.

Robespierre choose the latter, which is why i dislike comparing him to communists, because most commie dictatorships were ruled by huge egos.
