Alas, Louis XIV outdid everybody else. He issued his Dragonettes Orders. Under them, if you didn't attend Louis church of choice French troops would be quartered in private homes. While there they were free to eat the food, sleep in the beds, sit on the furniture, steal the jewels and rape the women and girls in the household.
A protesting man could be murdered with no recourse.
Hundreds of thousands of Protestants fled France as a consequence. Hundreds of thousands of others were murdered.
The English don't hold a candle to this. After all, they didn't run a tyranny and even had pretensions of having an open and free society.
Louis was pretentious, but not about how to oppress and kill.
He set the tone for France for an age.
It seems to me that you are biased in favor of Protestants.
