      yep I'd like to restructure our criminal justice system so that 99% of problems are solved with some mix of * restitution * whipping * exile https://t.co/nkt2skEWN4

      Not an 8A fan then, I take it. Treat every man according to his deserts, and whom shall escape whipping?, says Hamlet.

      I find whipping far less cruel than imprisonment. Were I offered the choice, I'd choose to be whipped.

      Depending on the severity of the "whipping", this might be one of the few times I seriously disagree with you. Assuming it's Singapore's variety, it's usually the most feared part of a punishment. Even the bullwhip variety was no joke as a punishment in naval tradition.

      It can be calibrated to be very painful but not disabling. Whipping / caning / whatever. There's some solution in that space which creates a serious disincentive to crime, but which does not destroy lives like 1 / 2 / 5 / 20 years of incarceration.

          Do you trust the government to calibrate this, or anything, that exquisitely?

          I'm an anarchist. You know my desired end goal. Do YOU trust the government to calibrate how-many-years-of-imprisonment? Do you trust them to calibrate sufficiently-humane-facilities? I see this as a harm reduction proposal. ...and a choice we could offer to the convinced.

          Robo-whipping, to ensure everyone receives exactly the same force and number.
