Is "Calling for Execution" a figure of speech for something?

- alessivs 6y agoDo we rely on Bannon's account (which is available, and different from these three words that keep being repeated, as stated by others), or the choice of words of a click-baity editorial summary of the Fan Page, or Reuters' alternative choice: "urged beheading"? EDIT: As noticed below, I have edited this comment to include Reuters.
- AaronFriel 6y agoA Facebook Fan Page is a business page that behaves similarly to a Facebook Profile. In this case, it is a verified Facebook Fan Page that represents and hosts content by Stephen K. Bannon. It is equivalent to an official YouTube channel or Twitter account. It is not a "fan page" in the sense that you mean. Edit: It looks like you may have edited your comment. I think it's important to emphasize that this isn't some random Facebook "fan page", but the official page of Steve Bannon, and it's a verified business page.
- chrisco255 6y agoIt's hyperbole. Right now, people in government don't really face a lot of consequences for the things they mess up. In fact, the worse thing that seems to happen to them is they get reassigned to some other branch in the bureaucracy, maybe a slightly less prestigious title. A lot of people have that kind of frustration and express it in that way.
