Meanwhile, in America, a drug manufacturer sold tainted eye-drops that killed and seriously maimed people, and not one exec has faced consequences. There's barely been any media scrutiny, just boilerplate articles that refuse to name names or even attempt to explain what the fuck went wrong. As for the FDA, I've given up on them. They're fucking useless.
I'm against the death penalty, but at the same time I can't stand lib orgs like Amnesty who screech about how DYsTOPiAn the death penalty is in China when we have the exact same system here in the States except worse because it targets poor and non-white people exclusively.
Call me an idealist but, the death sentence is murder regardless of what colour is on the murderer's flag.

On the one hand I agree with you in principle and I want there to be a path of reform and redemption even for the worst of the worst — but on the other hand I'm never going to feel sorry for Nazi war criminals or child murdering profiteers who ends up with a bullet in their heads.
I will take your offer and call you idealist. In a utopia, no one is killed, but while we work to build socialism, the deaths of capitalists culpable for crimes like this are the last deaths to cry over. The purpose of the socialist state is to suppress the bourgeoisie, and it is the evidence of this in how people of different classes are treated that socialists are interested in, not the "color of the flag" like a puerile Bakuninite might suggest.
