They got a Reign of Terror that was far more brutal than even the propaganda about the monarchy. At this point they were happy to claim Napoleon as one of their own and hope everyone forgets about that.

The Duc d'Enghien was not just some distant relative.
He was an active emigre plotter to undo the revolution.
He wanted to restore feudal privilege and the monarchy.
He deserved death.
Death to aristocracy!

Why are you posting a picture of Robespierre? He didn't want the aristocracy to die.

I don't get it. Why do people turn on the dictator just because he proclaims himself emperor. WHAT IS LITERAL THE DIFFERENCE? Pic related. Also happened in Mexico if I remember correctly.

The difference is that being a dictator usually lasts only a lifetim, while being an emperor implies that someone of your family will inherit your position.

You understand the ideals of the revolution did not depend on a democracy right?
In that time of crisis a democracy was one of the worst things for France

Robespierre wanted a universal egalitarian republic of virtue and justice.
He supported executing Louis XVI.
Citizen Robespierre said "This is not a trial. You are not judges. Louis is not a defendant. He is already condemned. Or the Republic is not acquitted. "
In what way did this Revolutionary giant want aristocracy of any kind?
