    Why? If we’re killing people, then who cares how they go? They won’t remember. Only we will remember.

    Is this better because we feel less guilt when they don’t scream?

      What matters in anyone’s life? Why do you care if I tie your hands together, hang you by a hook in my basement, and punch you in the dick repeatedly every day for 20 years? One day you will die and won’t remember so why does it matter?

        But until I die, it matters. Because that is all any of us have, the time until death.

        But if death is imminent, and you stick a finger in my butt, who will know or care but you?

          Just because someone’s death is imminent doesn’t mean we should torture them, or else why bother keeping this society going? Any society that treats its terminal members that way is certainly not a society worth keeping around.
