He championed for (and most likely co-wrote, seeing how Couthon was his puppet) the Law of 22 Prairial, which was the single most Stalinist piece of legistation Europe had ever seen up until the government of actual Stalin in the 1930s. Instant 10% spike in executions. To say nothing of his complicity to the unlawful purges of the Girondins and the Dantonists and the slaughter at Vandee.
Just because he co-existed with even more depraved and bloodthirsty filth like Fouche & Carrier doesn't make Robespierre any less of a hypocritical, fanatical monster who completely lost the plot.
