Mine is Henry Ford. He’s the catalyst of the 40 hour work week and 5 days a week that has been standard to the present day. Because we’re seeing now how little that really does for anyone anymore, where people are having to sacrifice more of their freedom to work second jobs or more hours than they should.

I don’t think it’s his fault directly for those reasons, but him thinking the 40 hour/5 day a week plan is a good one is just a poor reading into the future with the way it’s gone since the establishment.

    No one. There’d not really any point I can think of to “punish” them at this point except satisfying some creepy, sadistic sense of “justice”.

      The best punishment is undoing their damage and teaching their sins to future generations as a warning.

      And using their Graves as a gender neutral bathroom when we wanna scratch the sadistic justice itch

      Counterpoint: dictators that died in their beds because of course they couldn’t be prosecuted under their own regime and have them undergo fair trial. Bonus points if their victims are still alive so they can get some closure. Spain’s Franco comes to mind.
