    I don’t get it. Why not just get shot to the back of the head, quick and simple? It’s always been the most humanitarian and simple solution for fascists, and I feel like it’s probably not a bad way to go for myself.

      My honest reaction to that information:

      But for real there’s a surprising amount of room for error with guns. Guillotine is incredibly reliable as far as executions go

        There is a lot of room for error, but I’d still rather take the 5% chance of a botched death by a shot to the back of the head than the much more stress inducing process of being put into a guillotine.

          5% is quite high. And maybe I’m just an oddball but I think I’d take some solace from being guillotine’d since it’s got such interesting cultural context
