      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"

          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.
