No, he was not. In fact, if there would have been another person in his place on the throne at that time, there still would have been a revolution. Revolutionary feelings weren't new, the bourgeoisie had already had them back in the time of Louis XIV who had build Versailles, which drained the treasury, and Louis XIV made the bourgeoisie (not the nobility and not the clergy) pay taxes to fill the huge gap. By the time it was Louis XVI's turn on the throne, France was bankrupt and taxes were sky high.

The viewpoint against the execution of King Louis XVI often emphasizes the principles of justice and the potential for reform, arguing that his death set a dangerous precedent for political violence and undermined the rule of law. Conversely, the argument for his execution highlights the need to hold a monarch accountable for tyranny and the desire to eliminate a symbol of oppression during the French Revolution. Ultimately, the effectiveness of each case depends on one's values regarding justice, accountability, and the means of achieving societal change.
