    It's the fall of the Republic and the start of the Empire.

    It's not inevitable, but it is possible for the first time in living memory, and no one seems to be willing or capable of stopping it in a way that's worth doing

      You know in Russia they still have elections and representatives. What makes you think they'll get rid of the pantomime?

      What makes you think it was a Republic before Trump? When was the last time anyone in the west felt represented by a representative democracy?

      They're all kind of bullshit at what they're supposed to do.

      So is it just important to have a plausible pantomime? Is that what it comes down to, having a believable illusion of democracy?

        America was always an empire, they just didn't call it that.
