  • Important thing to note, though, and why I don’t block individuals anymore (instead I tag them):

    Blocking a user doesn’t prevent them from interacting or replying to your posts. It just hides everything they post or comment from you, as well as any replies afterward. It’s a reverse shadow ban, because it makes it so you are the only person who can’t see what they post.

    I personally recommend just tagging them in red and feeling smug in your ability to ignore what they have to say.









  • That answers my question, thanks! I was trying to figure out if that incontrovertibility was actually the mitigating factor, since he’s personally responsible for crimes against humanity and war crimes against hundreds and hundreds of innocents, all of which his own statements effectively admit, and is also clearly guilty of treason, which is one of the few crimes that is regularly punished with death, so I figured that would neatly delineate it, and it did. I guess, then, that it’s not because crimes can’t be fully proven that you oppose the death penalty.


  • Not necessarily in favour of the death penalty, but would you say that the crimes of Donald Trump qualify as having been “established in an irrefutable manner”? I certainly would, and his irrefutably proven crimes include treason, admitted rape, financial crimes in the billions of dollars, suborning genocide, and a myriad of direct war crimes. Are these sufficient to convince you that some place like the ICC in the Hague should have the death penalty as an option, since so many of the war crimes and crimes against humanity are irrefutably proven? For instance, should Benjamin Netanyahu face the death penalty, should he ever be brought to the Hague? Just genuinely curious about the implications of your take.
