The consensus seems pretty solid on how Robespierre got Brount
How did Robespierre get Brount? I'm still toying with the ridiculous fluff idea.
Well then, I wish I could borrow a middle-aged man to ask her, just to see her reaction.
Is 35-36 middle aged? Perhaps we could call on superhero Robespierre. He'd be very polite and devastatingly sarcastic.
they end up believing things like Danton was executed chiefly because the evil Mme Le Bas falsely accused him of rape.
I've worked out the logic to this. No seriously, I have the answer to this particular peice of WTF and it's this. Every revisionist knows Robespierristes don't have sex. Or if they do have sex it's very horrible and probably gay and they feel terrible afterwards and have to go and kill a couple of hundred people to feel right again. Phillipe Le Bas fils was a bit of a problem here. So Hillary's stunning revelation that Danton was in fact the Father of Babet's child makes perfect sense!
Except possibly we're not supposed to believe Babet had sex with Danton at all because she's a horrible Camille-raping strumpet, but that would mean Le Bas was the father and we can't have that because he's a Robespierriste and obviously doesn't have sex, so the only conclusion we can draw is that Babet raped Danton. Danton was the only person capable of keeping the revolution fertile (or something.)
usually centering about Antoinette - Not to mention forums where people debate - without offering any evidence to back them up, mind you - Robespierre's supposed lack of sanity
Yes. I saw something like this where in one breath they were discussing Robespierre's "paranoia" about intrigue and the next how normal it was for MA to pass state secrets on to her brother because the Hapsburgs saw ruling Europe as a family business and saw Royalty as more important than nationality. Poor common dear just didn't realise that was the way things were done.
You know, there's just not much you can say to that logic.
