some people have differing opinions
I'm well aware that people can be wrong, my dude.
States still should not murder people, regardless how many people are wrong about it.
“I WILL DECIDE WHAT IS RIGHT OR WRONG”
I don't decide. The state murdering people is wrong. I just have the moral wherewithal to recognize the fact.
Which isn't hard because it's objectively true.
Hope this helps.
the comments you’ve ever made on Lemmy
What's Lemmy?
arguing over inconsequential things
I don't think people getting murdered by the state is "inconsequential", least of all for the murdered person.
you don’t keep that control over billionaires.their money has too much loyalty.
Once you take the money they aren't billionaires anymore.
There is no objective right or wrong here.
No, the state killing people is objectively wrong.
I wish, one day I will be as cool as you.
Everybody does, I have faith in you. 😘
Step 1: Stop doing uncool things like advocating States murder people.
How many is too many?
A single state murder is too many. Full stop.
Add into that how you've just given child abusers incentive to murder their victims and scared children out of informing on a family member for which the death of whom they do not wish to be responsible.
But what kind of fucked up society can only stop anti-social behavior through murdering its perpetrators?
persons that will always endanger other people and that includes killing them.
You cannot know that, and if you have the ability to strap someone down and end their life, you have no need to do so since you clearly have complete control over their person.
I’m OK with the death penalty only in principle
You shouldn't be. States qua arbiters of justice should not intentionally kill people under their control.
Some people cannot be rehabilitated.
You can't know that. You only have evidence for people's inability to've been rehabilitated so far.
I’m just curious what you think the course of action should be at that point?
Not murder.
if they’re miserable, and the people around them are made miserable, and the people trying to help them are made miserable…what do you do?
...drugs?
Steven-Chowder-at-a-card-table over here.
I'm not gonna "debate me!" somebody who think murder is cool and good; it isn't.
