A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

Too slow, and too expensive. And, as others pointed out, not environmentally friendly. Also, once they're dead, it's just making more mess to clean up. Also also, we miss the spectacle of the head being held up, and the potential to see the head blink or move the eyes just before death, and the noise would compete with the cheers of the crowd.
I vote for the cheap and reliable guillotine, which can be built by any handyman with a trip to a lumber yard. Line them up, read out their crimes and keep them moving. They just roll down a ramp into a mass grave, toss the head in after the body. Bury them, and build a solar farm on top.
You wouldn't use one of these, you'd use one of the municipal grade ones that can take 8" branches. Your city already has them, they're powerful, and close at hand.
Hear me out though, feet first
That's the important part;
IT MUST BE SLOW.
I'm not for any sort of humane solution here. Any human rights advocate in this place.
Leave immediately.
I vote for a big guillotine, but instead of cutting the head off, it cuts them in half along their spine. Oh, and the blade is angled so it starts with the ass. Also, this one goes slowly instead of dropping really fast.
