    … for the capital crime of defending their people against colonial genocidal aggression

    Like, fuck executions in general, no life should be taken from another human except when they present an immediate unmitigated danger to others. Yes, including billionaires, let them work in labor camps. But this is just pathetically awful.

      Fucking aye.

      Settlers are often given a free pass to murder, rape, and steal indigenous peoples land. Whenever the victims fight back the law must suddenly be upheld. Very, very rarely does a white man ever hang for the same crime.

      And agreed on the last part, once you’re not in a ‘war’ and have control you have the means to remove their wealth and power. Going much beyond that starts getting into mindless revenge.
