“We kept finding all these little innuendos where it seemed like maybe Peter and Harry like, maybe had a thing when they were a little bit younger. We’d be like, “Yeah, Spider-Bros! Spider-Bros forever, man.” It kept like spiralling into this, like, romantic thing where we’re like, ‘Yeah, we can’t talk about it in the game, you know!’“
It’s totally cool how the official White House twitter is pushing white nationalist talking points.
“The Danger of the Stronger Multiplication of the Inferior Ones
Average: 2 children – Average 4 children
At the beginning: 1 couple with 2 children – 1 couple with 4 children After 30 years: 1 couple with 2 children – 2 couples with 8 children After 60 years: 1 couple with 2 children – 4 couples with 16 children
The inferiors doubling with every generation.
Without taking into account death, celibacy, childlessness, and so forth.”
The translation of this Nazi Propaganda is disheartening and disgusting. The comparison to what the tweet says, in my opinion, is too similar to be coincidental…
Even if you are willing to execute a lot of innocent people, I do not think there is a practical implementation of this policy that substantially decreases the expense and harm of incarceration, unless you also change the system where almost nothing goes to trial and the main purpose of the actual on-the-record sentence for a crime is for the prosecutor to use to intimidate the defendant into settling. As long as that’s still in place, most of the effect this would have would be more people (guilty and innocent alike) pleading guilty to avoid the death penalty, more people in prison, and more executions but not by enough to offset the previous thing.
I really do not think you have thought this through or done any reading about criminal justice reform options. It feels like you decided that the reason everyone considers this a terrible idea is that they’re ‘too soft’ and you have not engaged at all with the actual history of criminal justice reforms or the reality of the incarceration situation. That might be a limitation of anonymous asks as a medium, and also relatedly I am really sick of anon asks on the subject of ‘what if instead of criminal justice reform we killed most of the prisoners’, so I really encourage you to get a blog with which to debate this issue and correct my misapprehension that you have given this policy zero thought.
