@SharonCrockett @heidilifeldman It's appropriate. They quote those guys. In his little presentation on how we should "reboot the US government", Yarvin in fact brags about being a follower of some nobody from back then that did exactly that: argued that the upstart colonialists were all wrong and should be executed.
"Nobody else reads this guy but I do and he's right" or some shit like that.
It's exactly who they are and they know it.
@crazyeddie @heidilifeldman Yes, Yarvin explicitly said that he thinks there should be some kind of monarch.

Long after we rid ourselves of Trump, his Cabinet, Steve Miller, the Roberts Court, Mike Johnson, etc., we will still have to do the work reconstructing the U.S. as a secular, pluralist constitutional democracy. 2/

Luckily, they have put their hands in the air and waved them about to show us who they are -

@SharonCrockett @heidilifeldman They seem to want a CEO. The major players all seem to agree that USA needs a CEO.

It is hard to maintain an appetite for political reconstruction. People want to forget awful times and awful conduct and paper over problems and conflicts. But we can’t ever have secular, pluralist constitutional democracy in the U.S. if we don’t do the work of disqualifying those who have destroyed it from government. 6/6
@heidilifeldman As a German, I would like to remind the method of Denazification, practised by the Allies after 1945: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denazification
I could imagine that the USA need something similiar.
But please don't repeat the mistakes of history when the Americans and their allies too often whitewashed a whole bunch of former Nazis in leadership positions because it was so convenient, or because they preferred corruption and collaboration. -
If the U.S. pro-constitutional-democracy movement prevails, many now fairly anonymous Republican Fascists, especially, those now under 30, are likely to try to coverup their views and conduct during the past 10-15 years. 4/
@heidilifeldman May the judges in charge of Nuremberg 2.0 be diligent in their endeavours.

@SCampbell Unfortunately, he alone is not the problem. He is a sock puppet who suits the others’ purposes.

@heidilifeldman need a constitutional convention. Lots to fix structurally. Firewalls to build. An expanded Supreme Court would have a hard time worrying about what “the founders” thought when the new constitution is clear and relevant.

@NatureMC @heidilifeldman I agree & i hopeI'm wrong

@tiotasram @heidilifeldman In Ireland we're laughing. But then we have proportional voting, strict limits on political donations, no gerrymandering and much else the US has yet to discover.

I still think we need to get rid of both "parties". Many have forgot that dems are simply better at hidding their shit.
Standing Rock, Occupy Wall Street ... oh, and all the tertists attavking homeless people for simply existing in (1st Amendment) public spaces.

@heidilifeldman Let's just say that Argentina is not a prime destination to cleanse one's soul of racism.

We need to invest a lot more in mental health screening for sociopaths and psychopaths. Reprogramming for fascists, racists, and maybe separation for the incorrigible. Take seriously the need to protect ourselves from them.

@Ulrich_the_elder @heidilifeldman sorry for my pessimism, I'm not very hopeful that we will survive the fascists this time around.

One of JB Pritzker's key talking points is the need for prosecution of those in this administration who have broken the law.
Illinois Democratic Governor Proposes 'Project 2029' to Target Trump Officials With Prosecutions for Breaking Laws
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has outlined Project 2029, calling for Democrats to pursue legal action against Trump officials and law‑enforcement agents accused of breaking the law.

Here's the local paper reporting on him.
