All I said is that, considering the way he went and ruined the French Revolution with his raging paranoia (allowing for the bourgeoisie to replace the nobility as the dominant class under the Directory, a position they kept after Napoleon took over and held through every regime change thereafter), Robespierre should be considered an appaling role model for revolutionaries everywhere. He might not have always been this way, but the rivers of blood spilled during his Reign of Terror will forever taint his legacy.
