    Better bury them in normal unmarked grave in the middle of nowhere so they will be forgotten.

    OP is proposing a monument to the people we hate which is opposite to what we want.

        Yeah, but better not vitrify. Better just burn the body so there’s nothing remaining. Vitrifying will just preserve them, which we don’t want. I propose burning because nothing will be remaining of them

          Burning, as in common cremation, turns someone to ash with some components that are not fully reduced. Vitrification homogenizes them even further.

          But the point is also to take them out of the ecological cycle. The material of scattered ashes are processed by the ecology and eventually are reintegrated into larger and larger life forms again. By reducing a tyrant to a solid and locking them in a vault, their material is removed from the life cycle for as close to eternity as we can fathom.

          Now if we had the option of throwing them into the sun, that would nicely reduce them to plasma, but that involves a heavy duty launch vehicle like the Atlas V. (My dad did the calculation once, and that would get about 150 lbs into the sun. Escaping earth is expensive.)

            I don’t believe in soul so symbolically removing them isn’t necessary. Burning to ashes will reduce them enough to make anything it impossible to trace any component back to them after spreading in to the nature. You’re just wasting resources on people you don’t like which sounds countrr productive
