Okay, next time we have a war we’re finishing the goddamn job all right? The opposition just doesn’t get to live, like that’s just tradition all right? Like I’m sorry. History tells us that you need to die cuz apparently you’re just going to become a thorn in our fucking side for the next goddamn hundred years. EG the civil war
Everybody must have their own perspectives, but I was speaking more of societal and governmental changes.
Like ensuring that everybody is treated equally by governments. WW2 ended in the 40s, but the civil rights fight in America kept going into the 60s and beyond.
Like ensuring that everybody has the best education that we can afford. That children are taught to tell when something is misinformation. That children are taught to be skeptical of easy solutions, or of blaming others for all of our problems.
Like amending the Constitution further to reduce the power of an authoritarian politician. Severely limit the power of the presidency. Remove the president’s power to pardon, for example. Specifically say that a president has no immunity for crimes he commits as president. Specifically limit the power of executive orders. Require that all presidents give up their ability to amass wealth, and that they must live on a presidential retirement and work as public servants for the rest of their lives.
That sort of stuff. They did look at the underlying issues that led Germany into the war, but they didn’t apply fixes to the rest of the world.
Yeah but to enact these changes properly you can’t hand the power back to fascist traitors because they will undermine all these efforts and you know it.
