Comment on Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines?
over_clox@lemmy.world 1 day agoLet’s not encourage the troll. Sure there are certain people that it won’t hurt my feelings at all if they suddenly stop living, but at the same time I don’t agree with the death penalty, I think that just makes the executioner just as evil, if not moreso, than the person getting their head lopped off.
Death no good yo.
I'm against the death penalty because I don't believe it should be necessary in a just world, nor should the state ever be trusted with that kind of power.
However, I see the guillotine as symbolizing the last resort in an unjust world. The worst monsters in society commit their injustices in broad daylight, and nothing will be done about it. We know that justice will never be served through the courts. So what then?
Other options are available besides death. Like, lock the 34x felon up in prison, like they should have already done…
They should have. But they won't.
Interesting.
I say they should have locked him up, I get downvoted.
You agree, he should have been locked up, you get upvoted.
I don’t give a fuck about the actual vote count, that doesn’t matter. But the differential of votes for two people that expressed the same opinion, the fucker should have been locked up, well that dumbfounds me.
They are already the executioners. The guillotine is all about executing the executora
I’m not gonna stop ya, go ahead and build it and do it…
I just won’t be participating.
Not stopping is participating so you’re just as bad as us, Friend
By your interpretation of participation, anything you do, or do not do, is still participating.
You lost the game.
Troll is a matter of perspective and in this situation you are the troll so what were you saying again
I reject the idea of beheading, and somehow I’m the bad guy?
Well you have a nice day too, and accept that you’re cool with people getting their heads chopped off.
Less people is the answer not more people.

That’s a nice sentiment. But an unrealistic one. Be the bigger man riding his high horse down the high road after we win. These people kill us every day. With the police. Via social murder. Deaths of despair. Poiaon food and water. All their fault. An intentional policy choice.
If we have to kill them to win. Then they gotta go.

Makes about as much sense as fucking for virginity or killing for peace. I’m not buying either of those ideas.

It must be nice, living in a fantasy world where good people win because they’re good and the bad guys get to sit in jail for being bad.

Meh, I’ve been threatened multiple times by crazy people, even cops.
I’ve found that staying chill and just walking away from crazies has successfully prevented me from getting a bullet to the head.
Two wrongs never make a right. Kill them with calm kindness.
