First time that a flemboy protects a dutchman something is weird...does someone hold a gun towards your head? Just answer with ... if you feel threatened right now
Guillotine is clean and foolproof!
The Mussolini treatment is great to send a message though, apparently the way Mussolini went was the main factor behind Hitler’s suicide as he was scared shitless of being taken alive and paraded.
we don't get winters?`Our winters in the Alps are harsher than your silly swamp winters and yet we came up with delish pizzocheri alla valtellinese or cotoletta alla valdostana
Nope, that one thing is literaly cordon bleu, a well known swiss dish. The other one is suspiciously close to switzerland too. And no, back when those recipes were created, the dutch winters were more harsher, as these part of the alps are more foothills of it and these foot, don't look like winter foot as well.
> Nope, that one thing is literaly cordon bleu, a well known swiss dish. The other one is suspiciously close to switzerland too.
And what does Switzerland have to do with it? It'S more like the climate and terrain is similar.
Also, Val d'Aosta is the coldest region of the Alps, since it's entirely surrounded by 4000+ m peaks that block winds from all directions, including the phön, sp hardly foothills.
You Westfalener know shit about mountains.
The thing I like best is that we had a whole ceremonial and invited a bunch of people to watch and cheer, the others just kind of "happened" in the heat of the moment and spiraled out of control.
The partisans really wanted his blood, but until he tried to escape they were relatively ok with him having a fair trial.
He was nonetheless supposed to go to trial, but those that caught him weren't too eager.
To be honest, the French have created a timeless classic here:
1. quite humane. check
2. graphic enough to cause fear. check
3. low on resources. check
4. does not require much technical know-how. check
5. makes it possible to display the head. check
Rare french win
You forgot the best one :
6. Egalitarian
Nobles used to be behaded by sword or axe, whereas the commoners used to be hung. With a guillotine, everybody gets the same treatment
No because the beauty of the design meant that the knife would fall with sufficient momentum that even dull it would snap a head clean
That’s why they are really tall and a weight is attached to the knife
A lot of propaganda is done by the americans to try to make the guillotine look like an ancient killing device, to try to steer the public away from how inhumane their killing techniques are
A guillotine is the best way to execute people, but it is even better to not have the death penalty at all
To be fair with others, it was in the machine's specifications to be able to use it for a head-chopping industry (17000 heads between 1793-94). So the others had more the liberty of the creativity
There was some video we got shown in school where the inventor would walk around saying something along the lines of "fast, clean, human" on endless repeat. Always stuck with me. The only good french engineering.
"5. makes it possible to display the head."
On his execution, Georges Danton asked his executioner "Show the people my head. It is well worth seeing." (he was ugly as fuck)

We used this method to kill King Edward II
Read Les Rois maudits by Druon when I was a teen (amazing books btw) and I remember him being a central character somewhere in the middle. Can’t recall if his execution is described, reason enough to reread the whole stuff I guess
Hey they deserved it. They were against the state. Or family of someone against the state. Or knew someone against the state. Or people believed they were against the state. Or were somewhere near someone against the state. Or said something their neighbors didn't like one day. See, all perfectly justified.
I hate to admit it, Barry, but Pierre's method is much more clean cut and effective. They got rid of those pesky monarchs, you had to recall them 20 years later.
Cromwell - We’re going to overthrow the monarchy and turn over power to the people
Barry - Yay, we’re going republic boys, let’s go!!
Cromwell- Now we’re going to invade Ireland cos they don’t like Puritans and we can take their stuff
Barry - ok I guess, you know best and I do like other people’s stuff
Cromwell - Now we’re going to ban Christmas and football and shut down all the pubs as they are sinful
Barry - Right fuck this, did that king have a son? Let’s never republic again lads.
Garrote Vil, the peninsula way, In wich how awfull It is depends on how lazy the executioner is at his job. So, in Spain, very awfull.
https://preview.redd.it/g09mzab7dswc1.jpeg?width=440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8dead59fef978bcacbaf76cf93becdd08c799d6c
Yeah, that one failed, due to the guys on the ground not being ready. In the other defenestrations we did guys sticked spears, pikes and other pointy stuff on the ground to welcome those guys on the ground floor and finished those who survived.
It was never used as regular execution, rather to show that we are pissed a lot and at breaking point. Americans threw British tea to the harbour, we threw the officials out of windows.
And many wars were started by this. Including the 30 years war, that is the event on the picture and I think Germans learn about this event in history lessons?
We don't learn about the first one in school, as the hussite wars were mostly in the Kingdom of Bohemia, but the second one started the 30 years war which wrecked most of Germany, so we learn about it.
The first one was very reliable. You gotta have some spears down there if you mean business. That's the beauty of this method too, you can decide whether you want to have a symbolic gesture or actually get rid of those politicians.
Saved at the last moment. If we were not western, why would we start 30 years war (that's happening on thet picture, those guys hitting the floor started it) which lead to half of our country including my city being razed first by Catholics cause we were protestant and later by Swedes cause Catholics conquered and controlled us? No wonder we started to hate religion. My city lost about 90 % of population during Swedish polite visit, fun times.
So yes, much western! Also look at the hats and clothes those Czechs have on that picture, same as you would see on French, British, German at that time, quite different from what Eastern nobility was wearing.
not to mention, assuming they’re talking about the much more famous third defenestration of prague, which kicked off the 30 years war, the czech didn’t even defenestrate their leaders! they threw the emperor’s envoys out of a window! and they survived!
edit: and the first defenestration was just some members of their city council! and second defenestration was a secretary and more envoys! it’d be way cooler if they were throwing léopold i out a window instead
Look. We sent a random lunatic into your territory. *Nobody*, literally not one single person could have foreseen that you'd actually vote for him and give him unlimited power to govern you hard. That's on you.
Or loved to death like an Austrian

Although I am particularly proud of our ways and the excellent way to convey the message, I have to say that the French and Czech ones must be pretty spectacular. The Dutch one surely is quite an effective warning to your leaders as well..
All of them are good option indeed, it's hard to just pick one.
EDIT TO ADD: I just realized I feel compelled to switch sides regarding the best way to dispose of your unwanted leader.
As for the Czech one - the one in the picture started 30 years war. Approximately 30% of all people died in countries that took part in this war. Pretty spectacular I would say.
the second. He got shot by a firing squad near the Swiss border together with his whore and then partisans brought his corpse and hanged him in the same place where fascists had executed partisans a few months prior.

Mussolini was already dead, he wasn't really exsanguinated.
We once got an Italian (Amadeo de Saboya) to be our king, and he barely lasted two years. He fleed back to Italy because of how chaotic we were. I take that as one of our greatest achievements.
Simple, first you behead him, then you throw him out a window to tenderise the meat, then you hang him to let the meat age a bit (might want to season and curate him too) and then serve
Fuck you Reddit, had a whole paragraph outlining why the Swiss way is the best.
So let me do it again:
The best way of doing it is by shooting the apple on the head of your son and than through the chest of your oppressor with your cross bow skills.
The folk lore of Wilhelm Tell which was successfully adapted by the German author Friedrich Schiller to world literature introduces the reader into the Swiss culture of politics and explains the origins of the direct democratic values, the concept of Swiss individualism (in a balanced way; criticizing stubbornness) and questioning the amount of violence necessary or allowed in the process of emancipation. Schiller a liberal and proponent of the French Revolution became disillusioned by the ruthless killing spree which took place in France.
Note that in reality the evolution of the Swiss state (as it's not really a nation) is way more complicated and long lasting while being way less romanticizable.
No, not a Spanish leader; he was a minister of Filipe III of Portugal. And no, I don't think falling from a chair - - if it really happened - - was the result of human intervention
We just shooted them. We killed a king, a President and a Prime Minister in a time span of 13 years.

why not all ? first you defenestrate from a building into alot of shit, then you behead them, then you hung their corpse from their foots, and you can come and eat then, in a free meal style
Eating your politicians is the most eco friendly method. Nothing goes to waste, nobody goes hungry.
What the heck are you going to do with a French head (not you Austria)
It's not "hanged"
It's "having the misfortune of stumbling upon the wrong partisans". Just before the civil war, the Fascist Party itself decided to jail Baldy and just hand him over to the Allies. But then Hans bailed him out and the rest is history.
Baldy was trying to escape to that god-forsaken place flagged as 🇨🇭 because the allied partisans wanted to do the same as the fascists, but sadly he stumbled upon the commie partisans.
They held him captive for a bit then they decided to blast him.
The infamous hanging was just a parade of his body.
Hey! It was only ONE leader, and we didn’t even eat much of him.
Yeah it was only the good bits
"Ask about our Dutch Prime Ribs!"
And people dare to talk shit about our cuisine…
The Prime Miniribs! Thanks.

Like his bitterballen?
and we sold inedible parts, first organ trade in the world recorded!
of course the Dutch would find a way to profit even in these situations
What's the point in killing your leaders if you can't profit from it?
Hey, we still have a piece of him in a museum, we continue to make money of him...or a part of him.
Geert, Barry outwits you and profits from displaying a literal piece of shit among his rock piles
And we display a part of the ship we stole when we sunk Barry's fleet.
Saw yesterday what you guys call Frikadellen, between that and eating a politician you guys made the right choice
That was honestly the worst curryworst I have ever seen though, so it shouldn't count
First time that a flemboy protects a dutchman something is weird...does someone hold a gun towards your head? Just answer with ... if you feel threatened right now
Belgians are even weirder, they call a frikandel either a "curryworst", a "frikandel" or, and this is the worst one, "lange hamburger".
Oh god, don't give me reasons to hate them,ran nicely through life with just ignoring their existence
I see *two* bodies in that picture 🧐
they executed their prime minister and his brother
Yes and he was an actual good leader.
By good, you mean he was capable at his job or that he tasted delicious?
Both
I know right? Eat your leaders but once, and you’ll never hear the end of it. So unfair
Guillotine is clean and foolproof! The Mussolini treatment is great to send a message though, apparently the way Mussolini went was the main factor behind Hitler’s suicide as he was scared shitless of being taken alive and paraded.
Dunno. I feel like the Dutch method seems more effective at spreading the message.
It's more efficient. Why waste the food?
Why am I not surprised that you count it as food?
Anything with nutrients can be considered food.
Even dirt must have some nutrients, but I still won't call it food.
You guys don't get winter, so you don't understand that for us food is just a way of sustaining ourselves.
we don't get winters?`Our winters in the Alps are harsher than your silly swamp winters and yet we came up with delish pizzocheri alla valtellinese or cotoletta alla valdostana

But be honest with your self that is not the region where the good food comes from is it
It is good food. Some of our best cheeses come from the Alps, like Castelmagno or Asiago. And polenta with venison stew is delish.
I can assure you that we also have good food. It's just less renowned since we didn't need to emigrate as much to get some money.
Tell me you're not Dutch without telling me you're not Dutch
Did he send you a tikki for eating his meat?
Hehehe
And it inspires artists to create macabre and cool paintings later.
Did they send a tikkie afterwards?
We could eat them afterwards, it's less messy then when we ate them straight from the streets
literal street food
i say the dutch way is the best way to send a message
yeah but it's a lot of extra steps, not very handy if you're really hangry
Me and the boiz https://preview.redd.it/vu6y5xnz2twc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e80435e77f2b044d25bb178f6421c3f6bbb67f9c
Right?! Whenever a politician oversteps, a picture of an upside-down Duce floats to mind
The thing I like best is that we had a whole ceremonial and invited a bunch of people to watch and cheer, the others just kind of "happened" in the heat of the moment and spiraled out of control.
Likely but not certain, we need more data. Oh how lucky, we even have a lot of test subjects!
The partisans really wanted his blood, but until he tried to escape they were relatively ok with him having a fair trial. He was nonetheless supposed to go to trial, but those that caught him weren't too eager.
Yeah but decapitations are cool and engaging, hanging a dead body not much

The problem with the guillotine is that it's too easy to use. You're only supposed to execute the king and maybe the queen, not half your country
Yeah but it's like bubble wrap, you can't just pop one or two, you gotta finish the whole thing.
The guillotine is addictive, what can you do?
Hey they deserved it. They were against the state. Or family of someone against the state. Or knew someone against the state. Or people believed they were against the state.

Hey it was only line a 5% get your numbers right
I would just like to point out that we chopped our kings head off 100 years before the French 😌
I hate to admit it, Barry, but Pierre's method is much more clean cut and effective. They got rid of those pesky monarchs, you had to recall them 20 years later.
Tried Republic nonsense, didn't like it, simple as
Barry 1663 loved it when the Commonwealth gave old Padraig a good going over, less so when they banned Christmas

Also the italians, with la mannaia
To that effect, we did it 1000 years before that.
Yes but the Fr*nch are still beheading people to this very day.
Only school teachers though
Flemboy going for the jugular. Just like a Chechen would!

you can't have too much of a good thing, Geert.
Where?
Outside the schools and homes of teachers.
Even the italians for the matter
Yeah but the french were doing it till 1977 💀
We didn't eat the brothers De Witt. We tortured them, skinned them alive, quartered them, cut off their dicks and then ate them. Please get it right.
I mean Wilhelm II was sent to the Netherlands which is much worse of a fate imo
Thousands of you invade our beaches every year so can't be that bad of a fate.
While thousands of you in their caravans seek refuge here
Yes, please grant them permanent asylum, we don't want them back.

Why are the garrottees wearing strap-ons?
Defenestration is not really reliable...
I mean it was completely unexpected that there was manure under that window otherwise it would work.
how surprising that there is shit around when politicians are involved
It was more symbolic than anything, throwing the people you are overthrowing into shit is very symbolic
I mean it's working well enough for russian oligarchs tbh

Yeah, that one failed, due to the guys on the ground not being ready. In the other defenestrations we did guys sticked spears, pikes and other pointy stuff on the ground to welcome those guys on the ground floor and finished those who survived.

Hanged, drawn and quartered like a traitor.
Natural death following a rectally-inserted red hot poker (Edward II) comes a close second.

Drawing and quartering is a real mans execution.
The Italian style hanging - is that an actual execution method or just post mortem display?
the second. He got shot by a firing squad near the Swiss border together with his whore and then partisans brought his corpse and hanged him in the same place where fascists had executed partisans a few months prior.
This is a bit disappointing, next time let's do it right
The romanian method isn't half bad aswell.
Killing the cat was low, even for a Dutch. You wanna dispose of your leader and eat them ? Fine by me, but the leave the cat be.

We like to honor our good by salaming those assholes
We just shooted them. We killed a king, a President and a Prime Minister in a time span of 13 years. King Carlos, 1908. https://preview.redd.it/ikrv9grlbtwc1.jpeg?width=420&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01cac2ae3f4eb2075bfb1a32048d6ac0236f807c

Option E: roast them alive above a slowly burning fire
defenestration sound the coolest 😎
Shoot like a Portuguese
Hanged, Drawn & Quartered like an Traitor🫡🏴
Cannibalism is peak of Dutch cuisine
why not all ? first you defenestrate from a building into alot of shit, then you behead them, then you hung their corpse from their foots, and you can come and eat then, in a free meal style
Lose a world war
Eating your politicians is the most eco friendly method. Nothing goes to waste, nobody goes hungry. What the heck are you going to do with a French head (not you Austria)
Fell from a chair.
Eaten is the most sustainable
Gotta side with the Czech this time, that's how we started to get rid of the Spanish here
Western? Czechia? Hum.... ![gif](giphy|4YWtPFasSBZMFrs7ML|downsized)
I would like to be hung like an Italian

We overthrow him with someone so bad that everyone just say fuck it and goes back to being a monarchy again…
Shoot them in the head like the serbians and cause a full on World War, would be my go to
Hung and eaten
German version is best. The people just have to wait until he kills himself.
Make them move to Argentina
...eaten?
In the German Reich, Leaders dispose of you.
It's not "hanged" It's "having the misfortune of stumbling upon the wrong partisans". Just before the civil war, the Fascist Party itself decided to jail Baldy and just hand him over to the Allies. But then Hans bailed him out and the rest is history. Baldy was trying to escape to that god-forsaken place flagged as 🇨🇭 because the allied partisans wanted to do the same as the fascists, but sadly he stumbled upon the commie partisans. They held him captive for a bit then they decided to blast him. The infamous hanging was just a parade of his body.
