that's a red flag tbh
Can't find :uh-oh: :(
Nah he's a comrade, but age might cause him to slide into lib tendencies
time comes for us all. May his slide be insignificant and weirdly specific
He was hung up because people kept beating on his corpse. 1 woman shot his body with a pistol.
His argument was "the corpse shouldn't have been exposed, it's already dead and making a party defiling a corpse is pretty crass"
Utterly unbecoming of a dinner party
ask him if deporting all the jews in you country is "pretty crass"
He started saying they should have imprisoned him forever instead of immediate death penalty. Which like, c'mon, I know you are against death penalty but c'mon
That's where I always get whatabouty. Like, why should leaders get off easier than combatants when they have more agency in the conflict? What about all the noncombatants who got it worse than ol' Benny did?
Why, if we're going to talk about victims of injustice in all of history, are we talking about Mussolini?
His stance was "I know he deserved it, far worse even but the show was barbaric regardless"
the death penalty is a far kinderpunishment than life in prison, unless maaaaaaybe if its a cushy prison with other people
Eh you are right, but in this case there's an enormous risk you'll lose power to some other fascist/fascist in disguise who will free the turd / put him in a cushy prison.
There was a political necessity for the Romanovs to be romanoffed, and there was a political necessity for Mussolini to be immediately shot and displayed like a pig. Maybe, idk.
it's already dead
yeah it's a fascist, soul death is their whole thing 
Hanging up a body is inherently crass, let's be honest it can be a bit of a downer. Which is why it takes forethought and solid planning to make defiling a dictators corpse fun for the whole neighborhood. Someone should have brought a good anti pasta for the crowd, and maybe have some local musicians on standby. Instead of hanging the body, you could have shot it out of a cannon. A lot of italian history involves doing whimsical stuff with cannons, everyone would have loved it.
Hey, italians' favorite group activity is killing a pig and hanging it upside down for further butchering. Tho the pig is literal and not figurative.
when Mussolini was captured, the war was over. the fascisti had collapsed and there was no risk of him falling into enemy hands, so no circumstances that made immediate execution a necessity. forcing him to stand trial & make a pathetic display of himself in court could've easily been as beneficial as an execution, if not more in the long run. the Reds running a public trial of fascist leaders could've been a serious political tool, and execution very well could've followed that anyway. it unironically was a miscalculation from the PCI to forfeit a piece for the post-war settlement like that.
for displaying the corpse, it's a bit medieval i guess, but the main error was allowing retribution-ist justice rule instead of realpolitic.
Yeah, this was his angle, but we didn't discuss it with such details cuz we were talked over by libs.
One day, when luxury gay space communism ^tm^ is won, sure we donβt hang the fascists for display, theyβll be suppressed or non-existent I imagine. But we ainβt there yet, hang the fuckers and send the message, ensure that particular evil incarnate cannot rise to power again.
I get where theyβre coming from I think, but thatβs a 
bigotry against Italian culture smh
INDEED! Killing a pig and hanging it upside down for further butchering is a literal core festivity in my family!
