Are you kidding? Robespierre was the leading thinker of his time who inspired the French Revolution. He was a member of the Committee of Public Safety, opposed the death penalty and slavery, and cherished male emancipation. He was in every way a left-wing liberal who wanted equal rights for the ordinary man.
The lesson from this? He was guillotined by order of his mates on the Committee in 1794.
