Firstly we looked at the difference between bandits and social bandits. General bandits steal from anyone and everyone with no differentiation between people.
Social bandits were popular within their own communities, providing money for them, protecting them or not stealing from them. They were often rebels against the revolution but not in the political sense. They rebelled due to the general social upset, they did not cause it. Without the poor of their community behind them they were likely to have no protection and be at high risk of death.
some famous bandits include:
These famous bandits were thought of as fairly good people even though they killed.
Being bandits is considered 'bad' because it involves violence, death, unfair politics, armies and deviation from the law. However bad people can be seen as good if they have a 'just' cause and bring equality to the disadvantaged.
