Reposted by Tim BonnemannKatherine Alejandra Cross @quinnae.com · 08/10/2026This is a moral atrocity and it needs to be loudly condemned as such. There is a reason that democracies *don't* do publicly televised executions (and why many don't execute people at all): it inculcates and rewards bloodthirst, which corrupts the spirit and corrodes the foundation of the polity. 411784558
