*does nothing wrong*
The French Revolution is like a top 5 all time historical event but we never ever have threads about it because 90% of the posts are just /pol/tards and commies arguing about Hitler and Stalin
why'd he get executed then? not murdered or assassinated, he was tried and executed by the statesounds like he did a lot wrong
>>18475035Scapegoated by counter revolutionaries
>>18475042They were the legitimate state, he was tried according to the standards he himself created for enemies of the state and found guilty, then given the same punishment he had set as the standard for those exact crimes.This is the problem with ruling through terror and violence. If you lose your grip on the reins of power, the violence you once commanded will be turned on you.
-ACK!
>>18475025I believe the French Revolution and Endarkenment were grave evils responsible for the evil of modernity for what it’s worth. It’s because of guys like him that we have trannies.
>>18475048The national assembly was riddled with counter revolutionaries from the beginning, chancers who betrayed the revolution when they saw an opportunity. Incorruptible Robespierre was the sacrifice of the revolution
>>18475035The bulk of the revolutionaries were either aristocrat snakes or retarded illiterate lumpenproletariat peasants that could be manipulated and dogwalked on a whimChadspierre knew this and that the revolution had to be tended with an iron fist with no mercy given to narcs and fence-sitting pansies The only thing he did wrong was overestimate the conviction of his fellows
>>18475004He was the only one dedicated to the Revolution to the endThe Directorate was laughably corrupt and counterrevolutionary that people didn't bat an eye when a literal autocrat came in
>>18475004While I like Robespierre, he genuinely did make a mistake allowing the purge of Danton and Desmoulins. Hébert was one thing, and needed to be gotten rid of. But Robespierre let himself be taken along by Billaud and Couthon to arrest Danton as well. They all underestimated the respect he commanded. And despite his "moderatism," he was a committed revolutionist. Not to mention that by the spring of '94 there was very little outside threat to the country to justify continuing the Terror.
>>18475394Wasn't Danton actually guilty?
>*does nothing wr-ACKBTW, this is his opus magnum https://youtu.be/Q83vqFEBqMc?t=705Imagine the bitch wailing as he went to hell.P.S. Mister Andrzej Teodor Seweryn did top notch job in portraying this proto-gommunist freak.
>>18475546yes but it doesn't matter
The French Revolutionaries were spiteful mutants.
