Yeah the more successful communist revolutions generally at least tried to put people on public trial, even if it was just for show I say it's a good thing. Lenin was actually angry that the Romanov's died the way they did. Vigilantism isn't a good thing.

go off wilfully misinterpreting my meme post in an overly serious yet annoyingly snarky way lol I don't want a struggle session so consider this my disengage

edit: !

Honestly even under FALGSC we'd need to do something with the occasional person who loses it a throws their ex out an airlock or whatever. I mean unless we develop actual brainwashing technology, but that comes with it's own gross moral implications.

Also, assuming us commies ever actually take over the U$A, wtf are we going to do with the massive chunk of the population who are totally brain-rotted CHUDs? Renaming prisons "gulags" doesn't really change the fact you're detaining a person in a location for engaging in anti-social behavior. The war on drugs has been an unmitigated failure and I believe we should be treating the real root cause of the issue with crime, poverty. I'm also all for trying to make prisons as humane as possible. But you do actually need to do something about violent criminals.

As a long term goal, I think yeah we should seek to use prisons a little as possible and what prisons we have should be humane as possible. I don't think even under an ideal society we're ever gonna get to zero, there's always going to be people who engage in violent anti-social activity.

But that is really, really long term. In the actual short term, if there was actually a communist take over, we'd probably have to be detaining a lot of people, both fascists and organized crime elements since they're often a tool of counter revolutionaries. You can say prison abolition is your long term goal but you're gonna confuse most people when you say that but then also call for gulaging most MAGA Chuds.
