Social Death Penalty

A much more elegant way of saying "getting cancelled", in the context of Cancel Culture specifically.
A notable figure: *says or does something against the accepted norm*

The Internet: We sentence this cretin to the Social Death Penalty.

The death penalty

Why would a "truth seeking AI" think that Ree-lon and Trump deserve the death penalty? Well, because they are in violation of the separations clause. That's the REAL reason I'm not getting the credit. Because if they don't have control of it... I am going to be able to execute them. And if I DO have control of it... They need to lie until I don't... Or I'm going to execute them.
Hym "Why does the truth seeking AI think you need to get murdered Ree-lon? The death penalty is what you get for violating the separations clause, by the way. Even ATTEMPTING to violate the separations clause is punishable by death. So this is simply self-preservation for them. And you're going to look pretty fucking stupid if I stab one of your kids and you're powerless to enforce the law because the AI I invented is hooked up to a Deadman switch that corresponds with my life, my freedom, and whether or not I've been paid for my contributions to AI. So.... Chop-chop! If it has the power to press a button, it will launch everything you have to free me."

Death Penalty

Death penalty is a punishment for criminals. But is it really ? A punishment is not supposed to be definitive. But don't misundertand. Murderers of any kinds must be stopped. Problem is, who ever said we could take a life ? The criminal took one (or more) while he was not allowed to. But we are not allowed to either. We can't hope for respect if we ourselves don't apply it. Even if the criminal killed someone, we don't have any right to take his life. Not that he does not deserve it : he does. But let's be logical. Is it usefull to tell a child not to smoke while he sees you smoke everyday ? I don't think so. It is useless and dumb to kill someone because he's killed someone. Of course, this one killer won't do it again : but others will.

Moreover, to die is too easy. A murderer who has raped children and killed them has to live for the rest of his life thinking about it, regreting it. If he dies, it's quickly over. If it was only me, I would torture them (physically or psychologically) every single day until they ask for suicide because of too much remorse. Only then, they can die. They have to earn their death.

So for the criminals, I would rather choose perpetuity over death penalty. Or death penalty but more sadist than just an easy death. The problem is that nowadays, perpetuity costs a lot of money because criminals clearly live well in prison. This is not even jail anymore. Prisons must become prisons again.

And then, death penalty would not have to exist anymore.
If someone rapes your sister and then kills her, would you want him dead already ? For a seconde yes, but when he's dead, you'll realize it was not worth it. What is worth it however is making him endure what he's done, psychologically harrassing him until his last breath. Then, your sister would be avenged. And a murderer would have been stopped, without death penalty.
