    Modern day version of a time honored southern tradition.

    Everybody would gather round and essentially have a public celebration, a holiday when it was time to add another n[]gg[]r to another tree. Sometimes they’d even hack apart the body to keep bits as souveniers.

    This is also a thing done in Starship Troopers. One of the TV/broadcast segments mentions live executions of traitors and deserters on channel blah, check your local station for airing times.

    In case you needed any further proof that … MAGA is literally a death cult, well there ya go.

    Ravenous, vicious, senseless evil.

    If only hell actually existed.

      Agreed. But also public executions like a pretty big thing back in Europe long ago? I know it’s not quite the same, but it’s also not just a southern USA thing.

      Don’t want to subtract from any of your points though. Fuck fascists, fuck racists, fuck MAGA, and I hope that orange pile of shit either dies or someone finally kills that fuck soon. Also the only good billionaire is a very dead billionaire (hopefully their wealth was redistributed to people who need it).

      Edit: when I first replied I didn’t actually know the situation. After familiarizing myself with the situation, I wouldn’t have made that original comment. The second paragraph obviously hasn’t changed. Fuck all those fucks.

      I’m sad we all have to live in a world where this shit happens.

        I’m sure that they were, I just know US history better than European history, and this is my own shameful backyard, doing this horrific bullshit yet again.

        No problem with the minor misunderstanding; we both agree that this is abhorrent, whenever and whereever it exists in any human society or history.
