So what I'm hearing from this is that you get more time in prison protesting the current regime that's oh-so-desperate to claim it's 'legitimate', than you do murdering people.
Wow. That goes places I'm not sure I want to consider in full.
(Alt take: He only got five fucking years for killing an 18-year old kid cause it was an acceptable target. Remember everyone: They really do hate you and want you dead.)

Apparently to get the really big sentences you need to defraud the rich, like happened today with some crypto guy getting over 11'196 years as a sentence. To make matters even more absurd the prosecution was looking for almost 4 times that [40'562 years].
If you are serious, then it is to ensure that the convicted can not benefit from sentence discounting.
For example, if you have two convictions which hold a possible sentence of two years each that is four years.
If you serve both sentences concurrently, that is two years.
If you get time off for good behaviour and reform (you learn to be a cook and run a kitchen) then you could be out in one year on parole to serve your last year through the parole program.

...For what purpose? What does that even add? That's like Megamind and his 56 life sentences.
