Well it is just a symbol for us french. Nobody would behead someone nowadays, we won't even behead our president. It is only a graphic form of saying "fuck you".

Ok, maybe one or two strange dude would try to really use a guillotine, but fuck them as well.

I get that, but it has "Hang Mike Pence" energy to me. It's a dangerous line to step over, IMO.

The former vice president ? Oh I get that, coming from those crazy MF following Trump, Q etc that would be frightening as they’ll probably do it and celebrate the act.

You’re right that violence should not be encouraged, I believe this is why Reddit is censoring the guillotine but not the fuck u/spez.
