At the time of this photo, I don’t know if an alternative would have been remotely feasible. It’s impossible to place judgement on historical actions with a modern moral lens. The idea of letting treasonous individuals live would have been untenable.

But as other posters have shown here in response to my comment, lifelong incarceration does seem to be the better option even if you’re looking at it purely from a policy and cost perspective. And rehabilitate is only possible if they’re not dead.

Well, the next question would be, “what’s the alternative?” Is lifelong incarceration better?

Holy shit, I can’t fucking read this. I can’t imagine how hard that was to watch his son go through all that and die. I can handle a lot of shit, but the tragedy of kids getting sick like that fucking wrecks me.

Is if there were a valid excuse before (which there really isn’t), there absolutely 1,000,000% is no excuse now with things like Uber and Lyft available.

Another great roguelike is Hades, which may or may not have dominated my video game attention for the last 8 months.

Absolutely this… they believe it zealously, and the ends justify the means.

No need to create a word for something that falls within the definition of another word or turn of phrase. Reddit has certainly followed Facebook down the inevitable march of the Enshitification of the Internet.

I’m not sure which article I read, I can’t find the quote… but the punchline was Biden won in terms of policy points; Trump won in terms of looking sharp and mentally acute.

The very deeply unfortunate fact is that the majority of voters will likely not fact check the debate. They’ll just walk away thinking Trump is the better candidate based on that performance.

Biden better fucking come hard as fuck in September.
