        Louis XVI did not deserve it *morally* but symbolically and politically his death was necessary for the Revolution to succeed - which is exactly what Robespierre argued. Unless you're a romantic reactionary the logic for doing so is pretty ironclad.

      He didn't, he wasn't the only member of the comitee for public safety, he just refused to give Danton special treatment because that would be literal favoritism and corruption.

    Tragic hero. Before I deeply studied the revolution I thought he was the head-chopping tyrant of popular history. Then on examination I realised he was one of the most sensible and visionary leaders of the revolution and on the correct (or at least arguable) side of every issue... until his mental breakdown while having to deal with a permanent national crisis all by himself.

      Is this how most people view him? My history teacher made it a point to flesh out his personal life and provide nuance to his character.

        Among those who know him and aren't French Revolution scholars he's mostly just known as the guy who did the Great Terror. It's probably different in France though, but I'm speaking from a North American perspective.

        The only people with motivation to deflect for his blood thirst are Marrxist leftards. Fuck them. Prick got what he deserved.

      Nope. He was just a puppet of freemasonry, just like the rest of the revolutionaries.
