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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

spoilerI guess a potential "solution" (other than not executing people in the first place) could be to put the tube directly in their mouth in some way that they can't remove it. It would probably be pretty uncomfortable, but not necessarily painful. But I guess it might appear a little brutal.

And they might fight against having it put in their mouth, but that seems like a problem for literally any execution method.

Edit: or just anesthetize them first. Is there a way to anesthetize that can't be resisted with painful results?

spoilerCould you not just like, overdose them on heroin? Maybe followed by nitrogen for confirmation? Or of course you could just not execute people.

I would guess the problem with anesthesia is it's actually pretty complicated and things can go wrong with that step

Yeah, plus doctors and nurses won't do it which means you're relying on untrained pigs.

Yeah anasthesis is complicated and you run into the same issues trying to buy those drugs that are already making prisons seek out this execution method. You could just as easily cause toxicity and overdose or run into a allergy to the drug and then the execution will again be botched becuase the prisoner has to be in good health before the "proper" method of execution is delivered.

It's just so fucked.
