    So in a revolution you wouldn't execute the people who are responsible immense pain and suffering and who also represent the best focal point for your enemies?

    Fuck that, they get the wall.

      No, I wouldn't. I'd make them work. Killing them doesn't undo the pain and suffering. If they die during the course of a revolutionary war that's different, but if you've won, there's no point in killing them. Strip them of their power and wealth, make them work, imprison them, but there's nothing to gain by killing them.

        They stripped Krupp of his power and wealth and tossed him in prison.

        He died rich and free.

            There was no revolution, West Germany was full of nazi generals, politicians, industrialists.

            Nato too.

              Then what are you even talking about? You're mad a bourgeois state didn't execute their own? He was pardoned. He was never stripped of his wealth because his family retained it. It's obviously not an applicable comparison to a revolutionary socialism.
