Nazis and the like deserve it, but it's a slippery slope tho

    But that’s the whole thing about death penalty. Robespierre was guillotined just like Louis XVI.

      Well, sorry to be cliche, but "In the game of thrones, you win or you die." In the context of a revolution, it's a necessary risk. If it's not worth killing and risking death, then you shouldn't be fighting a revolution in the first place. But there are plenty of cases where a government being too soft was an invitation for the CIA to come in, and as long as they're around, they're a threat.

      I'm not particularly happy that that's how it is but that's reality. If you don't like it there's always reformism and mutual aid type stuff, which I think are more realistic approaches anyway in the States.
