I mostly oppose capital punishment and do in fact think this is an L for china and Xi Jinping.
I am also really not losing any sleep for this piece of shit.
Is it wrong? Yes, yes it is. Is it more wrong than, say, for profit prisons? Three strike laws? Fucking kids for cash? Not on your life.
So yeah, it's bad... Boo fucking hoo.
I heard that for those cases capital punishment was supported by the people and that despite the Party wanting to eventually abolish it there were cases where they'd be disregarding public opinion which they don't do for democracy reasons
Also when someone is massively powerful, with big money and network, I wonder if it's really possible to actually keep them in prison. If you don't put them in inhumane conditions they might be able to keep doing corruption and sabotage from the inside, just like mafia lords often keep leading operations from their cells (and a US puppet is way more dangerous than a mafia lord to a country)
It is real hard to make the case against capital punishment when it is hella rad.
Well, yeah. I'm saying that I oppose it on principle. Not that I have a problem with this pos getting got. I would also ultimately like prison abolition but in our current system there are people who should wind up in prison simply because that's the only system we have for dealing with them, alongside a shitload more who shouldn't.
