The Double-Think Reaction To This Picture
Some people on social media could see the extraordinary levels of double-think, hypocrisy and self-deception that says killing is wrong but killing the killers is right, but so many manage to convince themselves that in calling for death by the State they are not a mirror of that which they condemn.
I have been against capital punishment since I was a small kid when it was still happening in Britain. I couldn’t believe then that people could be so stupid as not to see the blatant contradiction and I have never changed that view. The taking of life by the State is an ongoing confirmation of a deeply sick society.
