god, Exceptional Risk gets me so much, this guy isnt even an avatar but the way he TALKS about the prisoners he "guarded" is far more chilling than any of the supernatural shit

#the magnus archives #some of yall online still talk about people this way.... #'oooh they did the worst crimes so its totally okay for guards to beat them and torture them and murder them' #ive said before and i'll say it again. its not ABOUT whether they 'deserve' it #its about whether YOU deserve to do that sort of violence to someone who is completely at your mercy #its about what that does to a person and a society #and its about how dangerous a precedent it sets #to be able to completely unperson someone. #human rights HAVE to be unalienable or they arent rights
