@DJ_Anuz Was that a joke or do you really think exile would be better?

2019-06-03 21:39:08 UTC  

It's not the policies of the society that make a society better or worse, its the people.

2019-06-03 21:40:08 UTC  

I could point to early republican rome as an example of a society that used exile in its best days, but we ain't them, so it doesn't matter.

2019-06-03 21:41:51 UTC  

@Shadows
No problem.
Good luck... 😒

2019-06-03 21:44:58 UTC  

I don't remember DJ_anuz orignal point, but I do think exile should exist in the world of public policy. Might be useful in seeking dictators to peacefully step down.

2019-06-03 21:46:58 UTC  

I don't see how exile would be a good thing for the crimes he talked about. Like... that wouldn't stop them from doing those things again somewhere else.

2019-06-03 21:49:11 UTC  

Again. Devil’s island. They can rape and murder each other all they want

2019-06-03 21:50:16 UTC  

I don't like that idea either.

2019-06-03 21:50:48 UTC  

I'm disappointed Shadows, I was expecting an argument!

2019-06-03 21:50:56 UTC  

its the same as prison without paroll

2019-06-03 21:50:57 UTC  

I thought that's what my country was

2019-06-03 21:51:26 UTC  

or Liberia...

2019-06-03 21:51:44 UTC  

you can leave liberia

2019-06-03 21:54:14 UTC  

@RoadtoDawn I'm more then happy to argue, was waiting for someone to put something up to do so with.

2019-06-03 21:54:19 UTC  

You can at any time :)

2019-06-03 21:55:41 UTC  

I think the idea is that, people can do what they want in other countries but they will not do them here. I could be wrong on that though

2019-06-03 21:57:57 UTC  

That island could be considered No Man's Land 🤔

2019-06-03 21:58:46 UTC  

Japan used to do it with the Ryukyu islands

2019-06-03 21:59:55 UTC  

I say pick an island in the north of Canada isolate it

2019-06-03 22:00:02 UTC  

A lot of countries used to do it. It’s way more convenient to ship criminals off and forget about them than it is to feed them for their whole lives

2019-06-03 22:03:47 UTC  

@RoadtoDawn Can we call it No Man Sky, i'm sure it would be just as crappy (don't know if the game is good now or not lol).

2019-06-03 22:04:19 UTC  

I'm sure the king of the island gets to decide its name

2019-06-03 22:04:41 UTC  

But yeah, that's the idea. It's crappy. Wouldn't recommend a visit xP

2019-06-03 22:04:44 UTC  

@Shadows yes it was a joke.

2019-06-03 22:05:19 UTC  

My Colosseum bloodsports for felons is not a joke though. We should definitely do that.

2019-06-03 22:11:03 UTC  

We should get Kim Kardashian to focus her prison reform efforts on making Devil’s Island a thing

2019-06-03 22:12:16 UTC  

The winner can earn their freedom

2019-06-03 22:12:36 UTC  

@RoadtoDawn One of my many issues with the idea of an Island full of exiles, is you get (the person or party aggrieved) nor receive justice (the offender). Which would start creating even more problems then its looking to solve.

2019-06-03 22:16:56 UTC  

Say,
What this person or person's murdered your family?
Well we sent him to an island where he can keep doing those kinds of things. Hope that makes you feel better.

2019-06-03 22:17:58 UTC  

prisoner's island is a theory that's used in game match making quite a bit. It doesn't work for reformation (at all - it's actually been shown to make peoples' behavior worse), but it's certainly effective at keeping the people you don't want ruining your game for everyone else out of their games

2019-06-03 22:18:38 UTC  

(DOTA 2 is a major example of a game that uses a prisoner's island style low priority queue for players that get reported a lot, and Valve has found that once someone ends up in there, it's REALLY hard for them to get back out)

2019-06-03 22:19:10 UTC  

so basically - if there's any goal of reformation at all, don't use it. Otherwise, I mean, it's effective at what it's intended to do

2019-06-03 22:19:24 UTC  

ethical, when talking about locking up criminals together in a real life context? eeeeeeeeeeh

2019-06-03 22:19:42 UTC  

It’s meant for the extreme

2019-06-03 22:20:03 UTC  

Like high profile criminals

2019-06-03 22:20:13 UTC  

Dictators and such

2019-06-03 22:21:21 UTC  

sure, I understand that. Then we get back to the question of ensuring that it only happens to those that are 100% without a doubt guilty of such a crime

2019-06-03 22:21:25 UTC  

>thinking murderers have caring family members
😂

2019-06-03 22:21:33 UTC  

also, there's still the question of if it's even ethical to do

2019-06-03 22:22:42 UTC  

I’m pretty sure we’ll know if a dictator is guilty or not.
