Fascists obviously need to be killed, but I don’t see why they should be tortured. Torture takes valuable time from our soldiers in which they could otherwise rest, replenish their resources, or contemplate tactics. If our soldiers just take five minutes torturing one fascist - not allowing for lunch, coffee breaks, restroom time, rotations, briefings, and other logistical issues - by the time they finish 480 of them you wasted a whole workweek. Even with miss rates that necessitate ~1.5 bullets per fascist, it is more economical to just shoot them in the long run, and more importantly it makes us faster than them.
Communists shouldn’t torture anyway. The Chinese revolutionaries literally rehabilitated and re-educated royalty. It’s worth trying for most, I think. The Vietnamese revolutionaries did not torture yanks, they worked to convince their “POWs” (captive invaders) that they were fighting an evil war. Beria worked to have the torturer Yezhov executed.
Obviously it is more complicated than that when it comes to the willfully ignorant and the opaquely malicious. We should hold no qualms with fascists eating lead in revolutionary self-defense.
