… and it wasn’t nearly enough. Approximately 4 million nazi prisoners were released after decades of hard labour. They should have been buried instead. Non-negotiable.

    I’ve been on both sides of this and may be again in the future. I think one man’s “rabidly bloodthirsty and pointlessly cruel” is another’s “exulting in justice served and cruelty prevented”. I know it’s always counterfactual in that you can’t ever know if you’ve prevented anything in the future but considering the state of the world and how impressionable and easily manipulated people are, I think right now that on balance there’s room for some cases for capital punishment.
