As much as I hate to be Godwining, there's a historical example of a certain western European popular right-wing leader who also published his own detailed blueprint for when he came to power, and it didn't stop him from winning an election...

Useless fandom thoughts: For many years I have pondered why the Farscape writers never followed up on the fact that Rygel farts helium. The only way that would be possible is if there is fusion going on inside his guts.

so they pay ambitious grifters to invent reasons why they are naturally superior, and convince regular people to give up their power in service to their "betters", and the grift is pretty good, at least for a while

fat stupid lazy men, who inherited their money and never bothered to improve themselves with all the advantages they were born with, have always and will always try to tear down democracy, because earned power attached to accountability is something they can't abide

When this inevitably lands at the SCROTUS, it'll be just perfect to have the opinion written by Neil "You Deserve to Freeze in Your Employer's Truck" Gorsuch, as a delightful bookend to his other opinion regarding how workers have no right to live.

I certainly think some of them join in because, in part, they think it will help keep them safe. Goes to show you, fascists aren't necessarily very bright.

Dumbass failsons think it means history is over, and they win. That's because they never read history, it read anything, really.

It's disheartening to see the world not just ignoring all the important lessons of the 20th century, but actively embracing all the terrible ideas that turned out to be so costly to so many lives, and rejecting the systems that were put in place to prevent a repeat of that terrible experience.

They're fascists. When they say, "we need a strong leader, so let him break some laws if he needs to," that's fascism.

It's shocking how explicitly fascist the reasoning and language of the trump immunity ruling is. It excuses lawbreaking for the sake of having a strongman. Don't take my word for it, read it.

Yes, and what I meant by the reply was that the corrupt SCROTUS would find him liable for prosecution DESPITE today's ruling. IOKIYAR.

It seems perverse to me to call any of the six radical Republicans on the Supreme Court "Justice", since they have all unambiguously demonstrated that serving Justice is not at all what they are interested in doing.

If a Democratic President had done what trump did, they'd already be two years into their prison sentence, with this court's blessing, and we all know it.

On the same morning, the Court said: 1) We should not presume to know more than small town mayors regarding complex, technical questions like whether to arrest people for being poor. 2) I don't see why a "PhD" in "nuclear physics" should have any latitude to implement ambiguous energy rules.

Silver lining re the current "AI" hype cycle: most, maybe all, of the Singularity Rapturists have identified themselves. They soooo wanted this to be the end of history! Keep good notes and avoid magical thinkers in the (real) future.
