Bruce MacDonald"Only when those deemed as enemies of the constitution become organized in such a way that they pose a threat to democracy may the state intervene. In this case, associations and parties may also be banned. Known as 'defensive' democracy, the objective is to prevent Germany from becoming a dictatorship again, as it was during the Nazi era."

Arena Cops 🇺🇦✌@flexghost Refusing to play by the rules & accept the choice of the majority of voters, "GOP" is naturally disqualifying itself from being part of any electoral process.

@_L1vY_ @HopeVanDyne Right!
Confederate Republicans-In-Name-only can't ever win in a single election, if they didn't suppress masses of voters known to be casting their ballots wisely not for the anti-electorate party, "GOP".

@marcelias 😎🤔 Fourteenth Amendment Section 3.
Disqualify all of Trump's co-conspirators inciting & engaging in insurrection against the authority of the United States & the laws thereof, and giving aid & comfort thereto.

@oppophonist @johnettesnuggs The German design of Defensive Democracy appears to be pretty effective & appealing model:
"The idea behind the concept is the notion that even a majority rule of the people cannot be allowed to install a totalitarian or autocratic regime such as with the Enabling Act of 1933, thereby violating the principles of the German constitution, the Basic Law."
@soc_i_ety 💪 Protect & defend democracy! To keep the Rule of the People alive.
The Civil War was a violent, murderous rebellion of a minority disrespecting the democratic principle of majority rule, as expressed by Lincoln's election victory.
It was a rebellion against democracy, humanity, civility & community.
It was intolerable then & it's intolerable today, being as anti-American as it can get, if the words of the Declaration of Independence & its product, the United States Constitution are supposed to be taken seriously.

@nedhamson On July 2, 1864 the Wade-Davis bill on the Reconstruction of the South passed both chambers of Congress, but Lincoln regrettably vetoed it.
🤔 Maybe an updated Ironclad Oath should be mandatory today, looking especially at those dubious congressional MAGA aggressors from the South turning the House into a circus of militant anti-constitutional hooligans.

@WackyIdeas @New_Narrative @edgeoforever It's very likely overdue to stop thinking of today's "Republicans" as a normal electable "political party" respecting the Constitution & Americans' democracy.
Decades-long anti-constitutional racist voter suppression, representing corporate interests rather than the electorate's, senatorial acquittal of a twice-impeached career criminal, who a shocking equally sociopathic majority of "GOP's voters thinks he did nothing wrong, more that 140 congressional "GOPers" voting to overthrow a non-"Republican" government-elect, dozens of "Republican" Attorneys General harassing the Supreme Court/federal courts to overthrow the results of the 2020 election should be disqualifying enough for any "Republican" candidacy for parliamentary representation, be it in states or on federal level.

@marcelias 👏👏👏👍 Make MAGA Lose Again!
Because it's better for America & the people's democracy.
