The phrase "puts electric chair" refers to the act of preparing someone for execution by electrocution, which is a controversial and highly debated method of capital punishment. However, there are several synonyms for this phrase that can be used in different contexts, such as "administers the electric chair," "applies the electric current," "executes by electrocution," or simply "puts to death." While the use of the electric chair as a method of execution has largely been phased out in modern times, these synonyms can still be useful for discussing the history and politics of capital punishment. It is worth noting that these terms do not necessarily condone or endorse the use of the electric chair or any form of state-sanctioned killing.
