Reminder that Robespierre did nothing wrong
Danton was a mistake.
Also he cared too much about countering atheism. The main issue of the revolution was not the virtues and lack thereof of the people, or the english and counterrevolutionnary plots, but the generalized corruption of the new and not so new elites.

But that's okay

So if he had killed only 3000 people, you would have been fine with him?

Robespierrre didn't do much about catholics as far as I know (which is not that far). The confiscation of the church's properties and its forcible reorganisation into a republican and democratic institution did enough damage and that happened before Max got to power.
>>453667
Do you have a source for that 30000 ?
I remember that the terror only killed 2500 people in Paris.

The September Massacre alone was around that number.

Two wrongs doesn't make a right.

Then you don't know shit.
>Laws allowed that any priest could be killed on sight without trial
>Anyone "harboring" a priest could also be killed on sight
>Monks were locked into oubliettes and left to starve to death
>Mass execution of nuns for the crime of being nuns
Read a fucking book

Killing people in war is judged historically in a different light than executing your own people en masse.

Good thing Nappy ended this savagery.
The quick blood shed at once in France is nothing compared to the slow blood drawn by the monarchs for centuries before.

It's like saying the Czar's family execution wasn't part of the October Revolution because Lenin did not directly order it.

Actually urban proletariat. The peasants had to good sense of sticking to what they know.

Right, two completely different things.
