Some mad hybrid that doesn’t really fit the neat little capitalism-good/communism-bad binary that is very comforting and beloved by tech workers here on HN? The modern world is complex and doesn’t often fit into neat little simple boxes, attempts to do so will fall flat and they shouldn’t be the crux of a discussion like this.
The article in question is relating to crime and capital punishment. It is worth analyzing and understanding, not merely swatting aside as a mere “Leninist” political purge.

This forum, is almost never, the "crux" of anything. None of us have investigatory or legislative powers. We're just exchanging opinions and ideas. > not merely swatting aside as a mere “Leninist” political purge. Okay.. but is there, like, an element of that involved here, or not? It's a valid question.
