Really need to bring back death penalties. These scum kill us and yet we do nothing.

[-] Eheran@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

Not sure how this would change anything compared to life in prison?

Do these people get put in jail?

[-] Changetheview@lemmy.world 60 points 1 year ago

It’s rare for criminal action of corporate leaders to be charged, period.

I think a better starting place would be to change this. Be much more willing to hold malicious corporate leaders accountable for their crimes. They far too often fall behind the security of a corporate veil, which if investigated, usually ends up with a fine, a slap on the wrist.

Prosecutors are allowed to pierce the corporate veil for criminal actions, but they rarely do so.

I agree, but being able to not be directly prosecuted is basically why corporations and the idea of incorporating exist at all.

It has always been about minimizing risk to the business owner.

It is bullshit and needs to change.

They will make this go away with money.

The death penalty still exists (well, in many US states it does), it just doesn't get applied to those who are Too Rich To Die.

I don't want death. Far too simple.

My solution would be drop them off on an uninhabited island.

Have cameras and make it a real survival program. People can do votes for stuff they want. Help fund it. If they live sweet of they don't survive then also sweet.

They have no remorse for the damage they do to the planet and humans.

But corporate death is... yanking their charter and seizing their holdings You know, kind of what they did to the Trump org And that was a long time coming

it can be done

I think we need to figure out how to get them aboard a Russian airplane.

I think it's adorable that you still think the justice system is actually made for...you know...justice.

[-] Mojojojo1993@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Oh no I'm not an idiot. It's just what I'd like. Of course nothing has happened. So it's been and gone

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
