      My personal favorite Che quotation

      Executions? Yes, we have executed. We execute and we will continue to execute when it is necessary. Our fight is a fight to the death.

            Any action that results in taking a life is a tragedy. That it is necessary for people to be killed during a war in order to prevent the slaughter of innocent people is ludicrously stupid in an age where there are enough resources to support the world's population. Executions during an ongoing revolution fall into a gray area that may qualify as self defense, as letting the person live may result in the deaths of more people.

              Letting any billionaire live inevitably results in more death and misery. When does the state of war/revolution end?

                So if a billionaire is stripped of and isolated from their resources, and sent to be re-educated, they will still lead to more death and misery? There is no possible path to becoming a functioning member of society?

      Generally agree when it’s in peace time. But defrauding workers like this? Very few countries in this world ever punish these people, and even in the socialist ones, the rich enjoy immense privilege. The death penalty may not deter an average guy from committing heinous crimes because he has no expectation of decency from his society. But it does put the fear of god into the people who think they’re untouchable. Now, for Vietnam to weed out its corruption from the top so shit like this needs to happen less.
