Can we maybe acknowledge for 3 seconds that people are human, have human reactions, and a very common one upon seeing for the first time truly evil people who have done truly evil things is to wish bad things upon them as a knee jerk response, and that this probably doesn’t really inform their actual desired policies instead of just making a pithy reddit-snark response that ignores that context and blames them for that very human reaction?
knee jerk response […] this probably doesn’t really inform their actual desired policies
They continue advocating he be tortured in prison in their next comment nine hours after their first (along with the dumbest fucking strawman I’ve seen this month, equating to not wanting torture in prisons to wanting him released without consequence), so actually, I do think they’re short-sighted enough to unironically advocate for torture in US prisons.
You know where Anders Brevik is right now? A long-term, high-security Norwegian prison with a capacity of 160 – hardly 2x the number of people he personally killed in a neo-Nazi mass-shooting – where among other things: “As far as practicable [this does not apply to Brevik, IIRC, because it’s not practicable for him, but for context for what you’d expect to be the hardest prison in Norway], inmates shall have access to community during work, training, program or other interventions, and during their free time.” You know what that doesn’t change? What Anders Brevik is doing right now 15 years later: continuing to spend the rest of his life in prison away from the rest of society. The way it should be, not because of specific moral consideration for Anders Brevik but because it’s the only way to have a functioning prison system.
You think it’s “human” to advocate giving the government – this government, I’ll add – carte blanche to torture people; I think it’s abjectly inhuman. If you’re advocating rape in prisons, if you’re advocating torture in prisons, show some basic, human emotional maturity and consider what your foaming at the mouth for prisons to be hellholes does to society.
So you’re saying this guy’s actions are excusable and OK? He should get preferential treatment and, who knows, a pardon from Trump, right?!
A 77 year sentence is a long time to dwell on things. But is there a possibility of early parole for good behavior? These are the types of people are really don’t want on our streets.
To have harmed 2500+ girls is worse than murder IMO, only bc he convinced several to kill themselves. Kids that could’ve otherwise grown up successful or happy. To not only inflict this sort of pain and anguish, but then share it online for others to see and possibly even envy… 🤮 yeah, sorry, this guy getting a microscopic dose of his own medicine in prison might help him see things in a new light; not that I expect him to be normal.
Why would what I say be part of the problem? This guy suffering in prison would strictly be an outcome of his own actions that put him there. I’m not saying I want to torture this guy myself in the way he tortured others.
I mean I basically am. I don’t care if people agree or not, or downvote me. I’m not here for fake points nor to be a SJW, I’m here to voice my useless opinion that makes no difference like everyone else.
Fuck these kinds of people that prey on other people. That’s what it boils down to. Something bad happens to them while in prison, Oh_no_anyway.gif
“Golly, I sure hope our prison system tortures/allows the torture of its inmates. Me? Part of the problem? Never!”

At least double down on your position
