- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Whoever made this needs help, murder is not good
Slaying dragons is self defense and defense of others, not murder.
Please don't slander dragons by associating them with the filthy rich human cretins
I kind of agree with this type of objection. But note that the instrument of death is a guillotine. That hearkens back to a time of radical societal change, the French Revolution.
Additionally guillotines were seen as a more humane method of execution than the hangings and manual beheading of pre-Enlightenment France.
But also note that 99% of the victims of the guillotine during the French revolution were innocent commoners, most of the nobility escaped abroad long before the reign of terror started, and the final victim of the terror was the guy who had been in charge of it.
It's called political satire.
I can imagine you're a fucking blast at parties.
Seems like the people in the comments are rather fond of the idea
It's hard to tell. Satire is usually funny. #justaprankbro
have you thought that maybe this joke wasn't for you?

There's an air of truth to that in that, I want them to be tortured first. Don't build the wood pyres so high at the start. Make sure the fire slowly creeps up to their vital organs. We should also flash scenes of violence and poverty caused by their actions into their retinas as they boil into greedy little pools of charred carbon.
To answer the question you're thinking, like a baby, every night. Zero issues.
Billionaires murder millions.
I like how you think this is a realistic scenario.
If you ever scoffed at the word 'ableism' observe it here being used as a weapon
The classic lemmy response:
"its not about the murder it's symbolic of revolution"
"um it's satire"
"murder is good sometimes"
all in reply to one comment
I’m sure in a future thread we’ll get a comment saying something like:
“No one on Lemmy is saying we should murder billionaires”
I am absolutely saying that, feel free to quote me.
