It is nothing short of murder for pay. The media companies are guaranteed to already be selling ad space for it and it will bring in billions. And- we should all know already that the nazi organization known as MAGA have already claimed their share of it.

PLEASE- Do not watch this. Do not let them monetize executions.

This paves the way for judges to issue executions far more frequently and will result in the most colossally vile abuse of our legal system we will ever know.

DO NOT WATCH IT. DO NOT SUPPORT MONETIZING MURDER.

(EDIT: it’s been brought to my attention that people need their hand held so, what I am referring to here is that MAGA is going to use American military and social media to publicly execute someone. Whoever hosted it will absolutely profit from it and there is no way MAGA isn’t also going to take their cut)

      No need to check my comments. It’s just part of the news. It’s a thing that is happening that is being widely covered.

          I’m aware of it, mostly because of my doomscrolling of Fediverse but I also saw a Brazilian news outlet (G1 Globo) publishing a news article about it. So I can guarantee you; no, we “the rest of the world” didn’t skip that one.

          In fact, personally, I’m far from merely aware of the upcoming USian “Faces of Death 2026 Remake” as a Brazilian; it’s one of the things actively weighing currently in my head in ways that, simultaneously with all the ongoing shitshow I’m watching going on in this demiurgic world and around me, are further desensitizing me regarding my own… fate.

          Oh, it goes without saying, no, I’m not going to watch the awful upcoming live assassination.

                A significant part of Lemmy is very US centric and that’s why it’s hard to find anything interesting.

                    And I’d agree - so wouldn’t it make sense to provide context to the world, considering you provided the information to me - and probably others…

            Most people across the world, when following news, don’t check Reuters, BBC and AP. They’re all in English and pay little attention to more narrow national news outside US/UK.

            Reuters and BBC have news about it, but it’s not top news. You need to scroll a bit and keep your eyes open or you’ll miss it.

              Hey kiddo. This wasn’t for you. You really need to stop the entitled bulshit and scroll past things that don’t pertain to you. Mmmkay?

              Tell your little entitled friends to stop attacking people for posting shit that they have no interest in, or aren’t informed about and I won’t have to call them out in defense of myself.

If they don’t know what’s happening or what the pair is about, they can move on. I don’t go making fun of people and being an asshole to others when they pair shit I don’t understand.

            Believe it or not, complaining about “handholding” people who just haven’t looked at the news yet today and happened to stumble across your post first, sounds a lot like being an asshole.

              Yet it’s not being an asshole to comment on a post complaining that you don’t understand it?

              There a fuckton of shit posted on lemmy I don’t understand. Linux shit. Cybersecurity shit. Anime shit…. You’ve know what I do?

              I move past it. It’s not for me. I don’t need to understand it and indont act like an asshole to the authors of these posts that I don’t get it.

              I’m not entitled to understand everything I consume. So how about you go complain to the kids that believe energy. They read needs to be undershot and direly written and formatted for their abject understanding.

              You can bet I won’t ever post to this community again though. So congrats- touve helped to curate the content in your little walled garden.
