Anonymous accusers were allowed

The Inquisition court provided a lawyer to defend the accused, the accused was allowed to make a list of his enemies, those thus listed could not testify against the accused. This did not occur during the French Revolution. The two are quite dissimilar.

They were also “allowed to list” people early on but if the officials had any suspicion they were lying they were “encouraged” to do so under torture.

The accused were also generally uneducated, the questioners otoh were educated.

Plus as I pointed out, you don’t have ANY globalist elites heads rolling in this.
