Absolutely horrific.

At this point it's trite to say that if this had happened in any other country, there would be incessant media outcry about it. That goes without saying. What I think is interesting is the nature of these experimental execution methods (god what an awful phrase). Who are they for? What is the purpose of this?

We can clearly see that it's not to make it painless for the inmate. It's also not to make it more efficient and quick, the guy choked and thrashed around for ten minutes. So what is the point of even experimenting with ways to kill a person? Is it merely supposed to be bloodless, to make cleaning up easier after the fact? A firing squad is quicker and relatively painless, because the person dies in a couple of seconds, rather than minutes, but it does make a mess.

I just don't get it. If that person should die, then why go through all this fucking trouble when you can just shoot them, or alternatively shoot them up with enough fentanyl to kill a horse? Bullets and fentanyl are cheap. Cheaper than nitrogen gas, I presume. Sometimes it feels like the sadistic fucks in charge of this theater (and it is a theater, curtains and all) are just trying some new shit to see what it will do. Experimenting for its own sake.

tankies will be tankies, they'll never recognize the genius and wisdom of the fainting goat strategy

I'm not up to speed with the whole border policy thing aside from knowing that kids are still in cages, which is pretty much all I need to know

having said that, isn't this essentially just immediately accepting defeat to the republicans before the conflict even starts? isn't this sternly-worded statement just "okay okay, I'll do what you want, happy now?", or am I reading it wrong?

that's epic, now the republicans have to choose between doing what they wanted to do or getting what they wanted to get

you gotta hand it to A24, though... this is one hell of an ambitious marketing campaign

that would be a funny sight to behold, it would surely make me smile from ear to ear

why are you complaining so much? the Doritos™ Dew™ verification can is sugar-free and ethically sourced, and it actually tastes pretty good!
