@hakui @sun there's a study that shows increasing punishment for crimes doesn't reduce crime, imo because criminals don't understand causality and can't think temporally

Yeah, the death penalty should just get phased out. It also doesn't help that every time I see someone arguing in favor of it it just comes across as sadism to me, but that's just my perspective.

@sunbeam_rider @sun @hakui what bothers me the most is even if you present the facts people will still be in favor of the death penalty because they never reasoned themselves into supporting it they are just pro-violence
