most countries do at this point in time.
in democracies there are ways to solve problems without resorting to an actual revolution.
The discussion was triggered by the mention of upcoming challenges to the Voting Rights Act under the new court. I’m not sure large swaths of this country qualified as functional democracies prior to the VRA, and I see no reason to believe they’d qualify as such after it’s (hypothetically) struck down.
That said, I think the (remaining bits of the) VRA will survive, unless Trump is able to also replace Roberts or a moderate at some point in the future. But if he does, it’s toast.
Then lets not talk revolution unless and until that does happens and Jim Crow returns.
I’m the one talking revolution, so if you’re going to effectively participate in the discussion then you need to actually address the person whose points you’re complaining about. Your standards are awful, though. You think it should get as bad as Jim Crow returning before revolution is necessary? What about the right to gay marriage getting rescinded?
