Bloodthirsty regimes, such as that of the French revolutionaries, easily succumb to power struggles and paranoia. The same pattern played out with the Bolshevik Revolution, in the 20th century. Stalin executed his own friends and allies, including Leon Trotsky, one of the two founders of the communist state, and when Beria took over, after Stalin, he was immediately assassinated because nobody in Russia trusted him. Many innocent people, along with many guilty people, were executed by the French Revolution. Antoine Lavoisier, recognized as the founder of the science of chemistry, was executed by the revolution, because he was a member of the nobility, and thus considered a class enemy. His death was far more tragic than that of Robespierre.

Why was Louis Auguste excuted?
There have been several people with that name, but you are perhaps thinking of the husband of Marie Antoinette, who was executed, along with a lot of other people, during the French Revolution. At that time the French nobility were being executed just to overthrow the aristocracy, and not necessarily because of anything in particular that a given individual did. It was a kind of revenge killing that the lower classes did because they resented having been made into a lower class, and wished to assert their equality in the most emphatic way they could.
What did the German people think of Hitler's policy against the Jews?
Most thought that the Jews were unfairly discriminated, but kept a Nazi face so they wouldn't get excuted or sent to a concentration camp. They few that either believed Hitler or were stuck up enough to believe that they were better than the Jews were the high-rankers, therefore had the most stuff. Postive and negative reneforcement was Hitler's way, positive first but just enough of the fear to make the Germans hide their fear out of fear.
