Imagine how awesome it would be to see Musk, Zuckerberg, Gates, Biden, Kamala get their head chopped off in times square. I love the "wall" and all, but it just doesn't compare

    Fun fact: The french last executioned someone with a guillotine while the original Star Wars was in theatres in 1977.

      Every time I hear this factoid, people have always compared it with the Star Wars movies. I wonder why nothing else

        because it's still culturally relevant more than most things that happened in 1977 I guess

        I mean you could say it was during the Carter administration or some other 77 event but those feel more historical

      interestingly the last public one was in 1939 and there's video of the event, also Christopher Lee said he was there.
