  • The united cesspool of america NEEDS a modern day Robespierre in the worst way man.

  • really helpful :)

  • It is nit very easy to read the text against this background.

  • uhm, Danton was Part of the Cordeliers, not the Jacbins... but great video!

  • @bunnyday Georges Danton's political party was the Jacobins.

  • lol, my teacher told us all to watch this.

  • let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the....FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOORRRRRRRRR!

    XD

  • Perfect song for this at the end of the video.

  • For Regelemihai and Caxias, I highly recommend you to watch this short clip sub titled in English to understand better Robespierre and Danton :

    "Danton - Robespierre -L'homme de la rue contre l'homme du pouvoir "

  • Robespierre a été victime des voleurs, de touts ceux qui avaient l´ambition comme raison de vie et l´argent comme Dieu. L´erreur plus grand de cet homme extraordinaire fut croire que l´homme puisse être un dieu de vertu comme lui.

  • Homme extraordinaire?????

    He killed tens of thousands of people? Dicapitated them without due process or anything.

    My God...

  • @regelemihai

    That´s true, you´re right. But I think you didn´t read all my message.

  • C'est vrai que Je ne sais pas parle et communique en Frencaise, mais je comprend plus bien.

    You didn't say anything too harsh about the tyranny and criminality of the man.

  • @regelemihai And you to recognize his merits for fighting to reach equality and give people an example of honesty.

  • @CaxiasFreguesia

    Honeslty I'm at loss as to what that would mean. Equality? All he did was execute people day in and day out. Sure, all dictators talk about these illuminated concepts. Stalin talked about equality. That doesn't say much.

    All the revolution brought about was terror, genocide and horror and, ironically, the monarchy was re-established less than 20 years after all this glorious revolution when Napoleon crowned himself Emperor.

  • @regelemihai Robespierre fought for concepts. He fought against the venality of Danton, who was the prerogative of capitalism until 1929. He fought against the extreme left "anarchist" of Jacques Hébert. Robespierre proposed to change the man, not the political models.

  • Friend, again I repeat; these subtleties regading his numerous public statements are no more reflective of who the man was than any other dictator making promises in the public forum.

    He executed Danton because he didn't go 100% with Robespierre's tyranny. The only way you can execute 50,000 people in ONE YEAR is when any dissident dares speak against him. That is disguisting.

  • @regelemihai Many democrats (?) commit crimes to defend "freedom" (freedom to exploit people). Danton was executed because he was involved with the corruption of Indian Company and Hébert for his infamy. Plutocrat "democracies" killed more people through hunger and misery than any dictatorship. I strongly suggest you to read "Fatal Purity", by Ruth Scurr.

  • I'll keep it in mind, though I find this relativistic approach to suffering a little insulting. Democracies don't starve their people, subject them to genocide, rob them of their rights or kill 50,000 in just a year. There are dictatorships and there are democracies. There is no comparison between the two unless you apply this relativistic mind-set that, sadly, has become popular among youngsters. The fact that democracies make smistakes doesn't make them comprable to dictatorships.

  • @regelemihai Your´re right. Liberal "democracies" do not starve their people: they starve and massacre others, they commit genocide, invasions for raw materials etc etc etc etc. Is it still possible that someone do not recognize this ?

  • Dodging the issue. Liberal democracies hold pronciples of enlightnment as the core of their philosophy. They don't masscare 50,000 people in ONE YEAR.

    No matter how much tyou try to ignore it you'll lose. There' no parallel between the two. None.

  • @regelemihai For sure ... ! They don´t massacre 50,000 people in one year. They, for instance, massacre 100,000 in 10 minutes, like Hiroshima. It seems like "democracies" do not count as "massacre" crimes commited abroad. Sometimes a real and sincere "mea culpa" it´s good for the soul ... Pax et lux.

  • Classical...Using Hiroshima as justification for war crimes.

    Hiroshima was used in a wartime against a fascistic enemy who was massacring millions in indo-china, the far East and in Europe. It wasn't used against it's own population as coersion and silencing freedom of speech.

    Vive la terroeur!

  • @regelemihai You ddid not respond, continue to repeat propaganda. Hiroshima was a massacre, a cowardice ... you repeat the same and the poor argument of genocides. According to your theory, people of other countries must suffer, not yours. You must purify your head against poor, primitive propaganda.

  • I gave, what I considered to be, a good argument. Hiroshima was a necessary crime. It ended a year long masscare against the population of Asia and Europe. It's an act that ended the war. America never rounded up 50,000 people for no reason and chopped off their heads. Talk about propaganda.

    You use Hiroshima to demonstrate how appaled you are at the act itself, but no one can not see through your pseudo-sensetivity and hypocrisy.

  • @regelemihai I cannot respect nations or people that support war. Many nations build up their richness through slave traffic to others, invasions and exploitation. If each citizen of the world could make a "mea culpa" everything would be better. My country, Brazil, made horrible crimes, one of these was the invasion and destruction of Paraguay in 1870. It seems that many other citizens of rich countries continue to deny crimes of their countries. A dreadful reality ... Pax et Lux.

  • You juxtapose that crime to the despicable crimes of Ropbespierre to somehow show your humanism but you fail to be shocked at the crimes of the disguisting "revolution". You actually justify it. So if anyone should get their head out of their ass is you.

    Hypocrisy has been, sadly, a trend in France.

    A bien tot.

  • @regelemihai

    As a French citizen, let me tell you that I Heartfully agree with what you said.

    There can't be no justification for Crimes, Murder or whatever. Thus, Robespierre must be regarded as a bloody bastard that murdered more than 16 000 people, that jailed some 500 000 citizens. The reason why he comitted himself in thoses atrocities eventhough praiseworthy or noble will never ever EXCUSE the blood bath he unleashed

  • Oh thank you sir! That is my beef with it too. No crimes of such magnitude against a nation's own population is justified. Only nihilists find justifications.

    Your english is superb, btw. I just visited Paris 3 months ago. By far one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

  • @regelemihai

    Thank you so much. Im really surprised to see that so many footages are made about Robespierre by Americans or Brits on You Tube. This man has long ago fallen into disfavour with the Public in France. His so called incorruptibility or uprightness boiled down to rigidity blind stubbornness and paranoia. For the whole he made French revolution a bloody event on which many people keep on fantasizing without any obvious reason.

  • @regelemihai . When he died he said "the republic died, the kingdom of thieves is coming." Napoleon was a military dictator, a model of government that the international rapers of the twentieth century have imposed to a number of countries, among them Spain and Latin America. Pax et lux for you.

  • @CaxiasFreguesia

    je me permets de te répondre en Français Caxias car ton Français est très bon.

    Robespierre était un idéaliste tout droit sorti d'un prestigieux Lycée parisien : Louis le Grand. A ce titre, il n'était pas un homme du peuple ordinaire et ne comprenait que peu ses préoccupations quotidiennes (manger, se vêtir et essayer de vivre) . Ce qui l'intéressait in fine ce n'était pas tant de changer le système politique dévoyé mais l'Homme lui même .

  • Et qui peut changer l'Homme sinon Dieu ?

    Je pense que Robespierre fait rêver parce qu'il est un modèle d'intégrité, mais quoi de plus DANGEUREUX que la vertu, la droiture érigées en dogmes dans des systèmes politiques. Seuls l'extrême droite et les théocraties proposent de tels programmes aujourd'hui.

    l'homme est faible , faillible, changeant, inconstant . C'est à la politique de s'adapter à lui..pas le contraire.

  • vive Robespierre! vive la liberté, l'egalité et la fraternité! vive la république démocratique et social! Mort aux égoistes bourgeois propriétaires réactionnaires et antisocial! freedom is a fight not a kiss.

  • It is better to be a poor fisherman than part of a Government of Men.

  • robbespeire had 1 fatal flaw in his code virtues : he thought that it was acceptable to kill for virtue

  • evil will triumph over good, they say, until good eradicates all evil... until then, good heads will roll...

  • good does not always triumph . especially with such a yin yang figure like him . he certainly had many good points and he was a martyr but at the same time he done mass killing . it was ok to execute the royalists but once he started executing the moderate girodinists he went to far

  • Que video mais confuso. Ate um presidente americano mostraram ai...

    tenha do, meu!

    Alem do mais, os textos apresentam um punhao de erros historicos.

    Robespierre virou um ditador depois de um tempo. Ele se tornou um. Nao foi um desde o comeco.

  • 2-what? he wanted equal rights for all on earth? then what possed him to lose his mind in a haze of violent paranoia? he killed 55,000 people!!! him and Marat! his lap dog!

  • it amazes me how the liberals see this man as an utter despot, in their own haze of democracy ,the carpet bombing of a nation under dictatorship (iraq) seems to have less of a graphic affect on the brain than the terror. 1 million murdered for demacratic process. was this a nessesity as was the terror of the virtue?

  • Comment removed

  • Iraq was not carpet bombed so at least get your facts straight. Strategic bombings were used in order to minimize collateral damage and targets were selected based on their strategic value and not based on their political affiliations which is what robospierre did. He killed people because they remained loyal to the king or didn't go along with his "revolution". It always amazes me how people on the left seem to think its OK for governments to kill their own citizens for polital goals.

  • @wot2wot2 There was no carpet bombings, that's a complete lie.

    The 1 million figure is also so far fetched it's not even funny. The Iraq dead toll (to which insurgents contributed also) is ten times smaller than your figure. It's actually only a few tens of thousands over what Robespierre did in ONE YEAR.

  • why must good hearted revolutionarys become the very fascist bully boys they initially fought in bloody battle! the French and Russian revolutions could have succeeded without the coming of madmen!! and the American revolution could have been far less violent towards the original occupants of this north america. much blood on that American flag.

  • To be honest, nothing wrong with fascism. If you've ever studied basic politics, its just really really conservative. To be honest, the only reason everyone thinks fascist=evil is because of Hitler and Mussolini.

    I support fascism! Don't hate XD

  • I think if you like living in a totalitarian society then go for it but at least let the people who don't want to live that way a chance to opt out but that ain't what totalitarianism is about is it?

  • @timbosforporn

    True that. Personally I prefer living under a capable and intelligent dictator than an imcompetent and foolish person who was voted in XD

  • Go for it.  There is at least a hundred dictatorships in this world that you can move to and be really happy.

  • The American Revolution is the only revolution to succeed without killing it`s own citizens as far i can see,there is no American Robespierre,Mao or Stalin,

    The American Indians were not citizens of the republic,well not then anyway.

  • Robespierre was a flawed hero. The crimes of Jacobins PALE in comparison to the crimes of feudalism and slavery!

  • Robespierre got the death he deserved.

  • 1:45 is actually truth, he abolished slavery in french colonies. But with the fascist of Napoleon, slavery started again....

  • he was arel partiot and hero

    To punish the oppressors of humanity is clemency; to forgive them is cruelty. — Maximilien Robespierre, 1794

  • killing 55,00 people isnt heroic

  • it's more people than YOU've killed

  • killing 55,000 rich and artistocrat is great

  • Its taken from the Warcraft III soundtrack. I believe its the cinematic suite.

  • Which music did you used until 4:15? Thank you

  • I'm glad my work is helping people out. Um.. I received pretty high marks for this, somewhere in the 90's. Hard to remember lol I was in grade 11 or 12.
