Ah, Julius Streicher. I barely had heard of him when I read about the Nuremberg trials. Dude was a propagandist. And they hanged him. He was literally edgelording until his last breath.

At first I was like "well, the other guys they hanged literally oversaw genocide, but this guy was a propagandist. Kinda harsh punishment for a propagandist. Wonder why?"

But now that I've watched the online hate pipeline run it's course for a while and do its thing, I kinda get it.

I'm advocating harsh bans for the birdsite royalty, and if they don't volunteer for that, maybe they should be put somewhere where they can be monitored to not propagandise. Not advocating for death penalty, it's categorically wrong.

If we in the US ever get out of this mess I'd love to see that happen to all Fox News execs and on-air personalities.

I learned of him after I learned about the Rwandan genocide and so I never questioned it. The hatemonger is probably the most vital figure in creating a genocide

It's not. The death penalty is suitable for things like genocide... Or even being a propagandist for crimes against humanity.

For example, the world would positively be a better place, if Elon Musk was executed for his aiding of crimes against humanity.

Life imprisonment I have always felt is the crueler of the punishments. A stretched out monotony that makes a day last the rest of a lifetime that warps and mushes the brain.

But also I do still get making a statement out of the death penalty for direct statements of what a society will not accept.

It's not about cruelty. Its about keeping others safe from a very evil (Objectively) person. It's not about statements, either. It's about halting the spread of fascism.
