Japan Ends Hiatus in Execution Fervor: Plays Catch-Up with "Twitter Killer"
By Cynic Cosmo Creed, Published 7 hours ago
Finally, Japan's justice system revs up its old, trusty machine of moral retribution, no doubt feeling a bit rusty after lounging on a three-year coffee break. Here comes Takahiro Shiraishi, also known as the "Twitter killer," who now gets to see firsthand what dismantling humans and tweeting about it gets you in Japan - a free one-way trip to the underworld.
In a country where politeness is next to godliness, it seems Shiraishi missed the memo. Social media, once a tool for sharing cat memes and humble brags about your morning sushi, turned into a macabre canvas for his murderous art. But fear not, Japan's sense of order and decorum has been restored, one lethal injection at a time.
The real kicker? It's not just Shiraishi's journey to the gallows that's noteworthy, but how Japan's government had to dust off the gallows like some forgotten samurai relic. This execution wasn't just about justice; it was an event, a spectacle, a reminder that when push comes to shove, or rather when tweets turn to terror, Japan's got the final say. And isn't it ironic? The man who used Twitter to lure victims, now has his own hashtag: JusticeServed.
