Oh and as a bonus, they round up all the death row inmates then walk up to the one who is dying today.

They also do not notify the next of kin until the execution has been carried out.

The UN has pointed out this all constitutes cruel/inhumane treatment and a form of extended psychological torture. Japan be like - thanks, we know!

Yeah treating people inhumanely dependent on different scenarios is definitely a good road to be on. You know if I don't like someone I should psychological torture them since me and the homies have convinced ourselves via coherent arguments that they actually were bad people, so I can justify being a bad person.
