Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Guilt.
The button that activates these execution methods - lethal injection, electric chairs, etc - are not placed so the executioner can see or hear the event. It's abstracted to a single switch
In firing squad executions, it became common to randomly assign only a couple weapons with live cartridges, the rest with blanks, because it turns out to be very difficult to look at a human being and fire, and the possibility of one having a blank round meant they could walk away and tell themselves their gun just went click
These days though, with how frothing chuds are, I'm sure you'd find volunteers, which is fucking grim
Funnily enough america and Nazi Germany encountered similar situations where they figure out people have a hard time shooting other people and switch to "cleaner" methods of murder. Nazi Germany was on a larger scale, but the same logic had the Holocaust evolve from machine gunning people to the gas chambers. Now america has their own gas chambers.
The Nazis got their gas chamber idea from the Americans. Gas chamber executions were very common in the early 20th century in the US
